Fire And Desire Chords by Rick James

[N] _ _ _ _ Wow, it's _ [Ebm] _ really good to see you again, baby.
_ [Ab] _
And I must admit, you're looking very, [Gb] very, very nice these days.
_ [Ab] _ _ [Db] I guess life must be treating you well. _
_ [Ebm] Oh, me?
_ Well, I've just been doing the same old [Ab] thing I've always been doing, you know.
I've got a new lady now, [Gb] and it's a little different than it was when I was with you.
_ _ [Db] You know, I think back to when we met.
_ [Ebm] The way I used to be, and the cold way I used to act.
[Ab] But more than that, I think of how you changed me with your love and [Gb] sensitivity.
[Ab] Remember when I used [Db] to_
Love _ _ _ _ them and leave [E] them.
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab]
That's what [Fm] I used to do.
_ _ Use and abuse [Db] _ [Ebm] them. _ _
[Ab] Then I laid eyes on you.
It [Db] was pain before pleasure.
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
That was my claim to fame. _ _ _
With every measure, [Ebm] _ baby. _
_ [Ab] Tasted teardrop [Db] stains, yeah. _ _
_ _ I was [Ab] cold as ice _ long ago, [Db] baby, baby. _ _
I _ wasn't [Ab] very _ nice, you know.
_ [Db] Sugar, sugar, sugar. _ _
_ _ [Gb] Then I kissed your [Ab] lips and you turned on my_
_ _ [Db] _ _
Fired me _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ _ up within your [Ab] flame. _
_ [Fm] Took me a little [Ab] higher. _ _ _
Made me live again.
You turned on my [Db] fire, _ _ _ _ baby.
[Ebm] _ _
Then you showed [Db] me what love could [Fm] do. _ _
_ [Bbm] Fire [Db] and desire, baby. _
_ [Ab] Feel it coming [Db] through.
_ And I thank you, _ baby.
[Ebm] _ _ Oh, how I thank you, baby.
_ [Ab] _ You taught [Bbm] me so much and you showed me so much love and [Ab] sensitivity.
_ That since you've been gone, I don't think I've ever felt this way before.
[Db] _ _ _ You know, it's funny how a man can change so [Ebm] quickly from a cold-blooded person_
Thinking he's God's gift to women.
Remember how I used [Bbm] to do that?
_ _ I must have been crazy then.
[Gb] _ _ Remember when [Ab]
you used to_
[Db] Love _ _ _ _ _ _ _ and leave them.
[Ebm] _
_ _ That's what I [Bbm] used to do.
You can't abuse them.
_ _ [Ab] _
_ Then I laid eyes on you.
[Db] It was pain.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ _ _ [Ab] That was my [Fm] claim to [Bb] fame.
_ _ With every measure.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ Chasted your teardrop [Db] stains, yeah.
_ _ _ _ You were [Ab] cold as ice long [Db] ago.
_ Baby, baby. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
Sugar, sugar, _ sugar.
Then I kissed [Ab] your lips and you_ [Db] Tons.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Baby, [Ebm] _ _ [Ab] then you showed [Fm] me what I love. _
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ Fire and desire.
[Ab] _ _ Feeling good to you.
_ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ _ _ [Db] You hold me up within your flame.
[Bbm] _ _ Fire and [Ab] desire.
And _ _ we're both [Db] blamed.
Both are blamed.
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] You know, _ _ _ I guess I think [Bbm] we both say a little too much today.
_ _ After all, [Db] T, you're [Ab] kind of with somebody and I'm kind of living with [Db] somebody.
_ But please do me a favor just before you go.
_ _ [Ebm] Just put your arms around me and hold me like you used to.
_ [Bbm] _ _
Tell me, [Ab] everything is going to be all right. _
_ Put your [Db] arms around _ _ me.
Put your arms around _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] me. _ _ _ _ _
