Hollies - I Want You
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: FF C majorC FF C majorC
FF
The guilty undertaker sighs
A minorAm
The lonesome organ grinder cries
DmDm C majorC

Bb majorBb C majorC
The cracked bells and washed-out horns

DmDm C majorC
I want you, oh, so bad
FF
Baby, I want you
The drunken politician leaps
A minorAm
Upon the street where mothers weep
DmDm C majorC

Bb majorBb

C majorC

DmDm C majorC
And asking me to open up the gate for you
CHORUS:
FF A minorAm
Oh baby, I want you, I want you
DmDm C majorC
I want you, oh, so bad
FF
Baby, I want you

A minorAm
But all their daughters put me down
Bb majorBb C majorC FF C majorC
'Cause I don't think about it

He spoke to me and I took his flute
EbmEbm C#C#
No, I wasn't very cute to him now, was I?
BB
I did it because he lied
C#C#
Because he took you for a ride
BbmBbm C#C#
And because time was on his side and because I...
