I can play that one there.
This one was recorded.
A lot of new people on the vote so I have to explain to them what's going on because they just read it out right now.
[C#] I just won this on a radio [E] station.
I don't know.
[N] I heard it was the last one.
Yeah, and I love you.
[Em] Has [Bm] there anybody really thought it was the last one?
[N] You did?
Yeah, I knew it wasn't the last one.
That's like the good [E] one.
It [N]
was recorded by a woman named Dara Williams from New York.
She recorded it as a lesbian song.
[C] Up until that point I hadn't thought of [N] myself as being much of a lesbian songwriter.
And then I got this great big royalty [C] check in the mail one day and it was just lesbian [E] song after [Em] lesbian song after six months.
It couldn't even help when I started writing a song about a semi truck next to you know just be a big old lesbian driving that truck.
All the girls would be sitting around the campfire, the irons in the fire, you know.
Anyway, if Dara ever comes on [B] the vote you tell her I got a closet [E] full of lesbian songs.
The one she recorded goes like this.
I'm wilder than her,
[B] what else can I say?
[F#] [A] But I guess that's why [E] she fell [B] in love with me.
[E] She's a house on fire, [B] she's got all those [F#] charms.
[A] I'm a house on fire too, [E] but I got [B] four of them on [E] me.
And I'm wilder [B] than her.
I [A] guess she thought that she [E] was just one [B] of a kind.
[E] But she's a summer storm, [B] I'm a hurricane.
[F#] [A] One just blows through town, [E] one [B] blows the town away.
[E] I'm wilder than her.
We go driving in our cars, [B] racing through the [F#] night.
[A] She can drive as fast as me, [E] but she stops at [B] all the lights.
[E] She says it's cause I'm crazy, [B] and she's probably right.
[A] But I think that the reason [E] is that I'm [B] twice as [F#] wild.
[E] Because I'm wilder than her, and [B] it drives her out of her mind.
[A] I guess she thought that she [E] was just one [B] of a kind.
[E] But she's a summer storm, [B] I'm a hurricane.
[F#] [A] One just blows through town, [E] one blows [B] the town away.
[E] And I'm wilder than her.
[A] When she takes my hand, [E] and she looks me in the [B] eye.
[A]
I see something that I've [E] never seen in [B] my life.
[F#] [E] She takes the fire, [B] and turns it down low.
[F#] [A] She takes the night, [E] and makes it not [B] so cold.
[E] She takes the day, [B] and breaks it into [C#m] bites.
[A] She makes my life just [E] a little [B] less wild.
Because [E] I'm wilder than her, and it [B] drives her out of her mind.
[C#m] [A] I guess she thought that she [E] was just [B] one of a [C#] kind.
[E] But she's a summer storm, [B] I'm a hurricane.
[A] One just blows through town, [E] one blows the [B] town away.
[E] And I'm wilder than her.
