capo 1
I put the chords where the bass usually plays the root note of the chord. The guitar
and piano usually play the chord on the up beats. The extra notes in parenthesis are
There's some swinging bass in this song, maybe someday I'll tab that too. I hope I got
all these chords right. They're close, at least. In my old age, I sometimes have

Intro
(g----A)
My baby came to me lately
Honey, please don't take this bad,
but maybe, when you lay me...
could we try to spice it up?'
(g----A)
I looked her across the table
First to see if she was joking,
No Joke, There was no flicker
Just a girl who wanted more
Than meat and potatoes
She may stop at...at whips and chains
She needs carousal
For arousal
(b---f)
A bit of pain
(g----A)
So we started by using handcuffs
We tried a can of cold whipped cream
I was allergic to so much dairy
She had to finish it all by herself
(g----A)
Then I slapped her She wasn't expecting
So she hit me back
She friggin' cracked me. I got a nose bleed
She was angry. She wanted more
Than meat and potatoes
She may stop at...at pumps and drains
She needs carousal
For arousal
(b---f)
A bit of pain
(g----A)
Invite the neighbours, or total strangers
Give yourself a leg up, honey
Wear 'The Queen' mask. Put on the French basque
It's full of handy holes, and if we're going to use them all
We're gonna need more than
Than meat and potatoes
She may stop at...at dolls and freaks
She needs carousal
For arousal
(b---f)
A bit of pain
I know you respect me
You won't reject me
And the arrow of our love is straight and true
