I want to be in love - By Melissa Etheridge
From the albumn - Skin.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A great songwriter and truely wonderfull entertainer,
catch a concert if you can, there aren't many ladies out there
who can play guitar like Melissa.
This song is pretty straightforward, standard chords,Sus2 here and there.
It's the voice and rhythm that make it one you'll want to sing along to.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first submissiom - been playing for a year so please forgive
any mistakes - I think it's pretty close to the original.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro - based around sus2 of the main chords
, , , , (sus2) x 2
I have climbed the highest mountain
I have sailed across the sea
I have wrestled with my demons
And woke up with only me
I have been around the block
Three times, maybe four
And I think I deserve just a little more.
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh oh I wanna be in love
You're standing on the doorstep in the rain
Cos you couldn't wait to see me once again
Oh oh I want to be in love
I have made some big mistakes
And I've paid a heavy price
I've found a little peace between will and sacrifice
I have watched as all my dreams
Went walking out the door
And I think I deserve just a little more
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh oh I want to be in love
I'm looking for a heart of gold
I'm looking for a hand to hold
A happy end
Strong and kind
Somewhere to rest my troubled mind
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh oh I want to be in love
On Tuesday light the candles bring the wine
Wednesday morning I won't get to work on time
Oh I want to be in love
Surprise me as I'm stepping off the plane
Take my hand as they play our song again
Oh I want to be in love
repeat and fade to end....In front of total strangers........
