20 ottobre 2015

I don’t know if these chords are correct.
That’s just how I ear them.

A-9
She mesmerizes with a smile
D-7                         D-6
Dark eyes as compelling as the bourbon
A-9             A-9/7+                F7
That girl in the canary yellow dress
        E7
Says yes

A-9
She flips a pack of cigarettes
D-7                              D-6
He doesn’t smoke but he takes one nonetheless
A-9        A-9/7+                  F7
It helps to keep his motives true,
              E7
(Gauloise-blue)
D-7                                    E7
What else is the poor boy supposed to do?

D-7                   D-6          A-7          A7   A7/4
She dances like a flame, words unheard
D-7                   D-6                    F#7        F7
Eyes closed and yellow dress, whirls and swirls.

A-9
It’s late, the hour’s growing horns
D-7                              D-6
The band seems to draw her ever closer
A-9        A-9/7+                  F7
This girl gets right down in the groove,
              E7
Woos and moves
D-7                                    E7
Leads him on to where they play the blues

D-7                   D-6            A-7                   A7   A7/4
She dances like a flame, Has no cares, yellow dress flares
D-7                   D-6              F#7                          F7
Eyes closed, arms above, she shakes, swirls and snakes

Bb-9
Too late in this folie à trois
Eb-7                              Eb-6
He sees that her heart is pounding for
Bb-9            Bb-9/7+            F#7
Big daddy who falls down to his knees,
              F7
begging her please
Eb-7                                    F7
Lifts his sax, says "here’s my little tease"

Eb-7                   Eb-6          Bb-7          Bb7   Bb7/4
Her dancing sets the place on fire, heaven and hell
Eb-7                   Eb-6                       G7                    F#7
The flames curl up his spine as she shakes, whirls and snakes.
