On the surface I'm a name on a list I try to be discreet, then blow it again I've lost and found, it's my final mistake , She's loving by proxy, no give and all take, 'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times Chorus Bridge G It was a long hot night Em She made it easy. She make it feel right G But now it's over the moment has gone I F# Bm F# follwed my hands -- not my head -- I know I was wrong Solo -14--------12-------------------------------------------------------------| ---12-12-----10------------------3-5-3-5-3-3------------------------------| ----------------2\1/2-4^4^-4^-2-4-4-4-4-4---4-6-4-2-2---------------------| --------12------2\1/2------------------------------4-4-2-0-2-0---0--------| ----------------------------------------------------------4---4-2-4-2-0-2-| --------------------------------------------------------------------------| Breakdown (same as intro) ------------------------------------------------------------------------| -----7777777710-10-10-8-8—8-777-555---5--777---7------------------------| -----7777777711-11-11-9-9-9-777-66666666-66666666-----------------------| -----------------------------------777-7----888-9-----------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------------------------------------------------------------| I, I just died in your arms tonight It must been something you said I just died in your arms tonight... lead in... --------------| --------------| --2-2---2-2---| --2-2---2-2---| ------4-----4-| --------------| Chorus
