[Intro D Dsus D 2x]

D                 Dsus               D       Dsus [every line of every verse]
You've got a baby pretty as a Creole queen
And my old man's got eyes of blue and green

C   G   D
Ohh ohh ohh

[chorus]
 D            A                            G                    D
And when that light shines on you baby you know it - soothes my soul
D       A                        G                 D
Finding time to lose with you is water - in the dust bowl
      A
I got arms to hold me every night
    G                          D     E
But I'm still sleeping - with a ghost
     F             G
Your kisses are so sweet and slow
   F                 E                 D
It feels alright as long as they don't know


F     G            D
Swe - et like sugarcane
F    G                 D
Slo-ow like a midnight train
    F            G                D
You like to call me every now and then
    F                    G              A
And I just can't wait to lose some time again
A  G         F     D 
   lose some time again

Nobody knows [D]
