[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][D][A][G]
[A][G][D][A][G]
[D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]That
old dog has chained you [D]up al[A]right[G]
Give you [D]everything you need to
[A]live in[G]side a twisted cage
Sleep beside an [D]empty [A]rage[G]
I had a dream I was [D]your hero

[Verse 2]
Damn, I wish [A]I was your lover
I'd [Bm]rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and [D]warm
I am everything
To[F#m]night I'll be your mother
I'll [Bm]do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you
won't feel [A]ashamed
[G]Oh, oh[Esus4]
[A]Open up,[G] I'm gonna get inside
I'm gonna fill you up,
gonna make [A]you cry[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]This monkey can't stand to see
[D]you [A]black [G]and blue
I give you something
sweet [Esus4]each time you
[A]Come inside my [G]jungle book
What is it just too [A]good?[G]
Don't say you'll stay
'Cause then you'll [A]go [D]away

[Verse 4]
Damn, I wish [A]I was your lover
I'd [Bm]rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and [D]warm
I am everything
To[F#m]night I'll be your mother
I'll [Bm]do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you
won't feel ashamed
[D]Shucks, for me [A]there is no other
[Bm]You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out [D]of it
Damn, I [F#m]wish I was your
[Bm]lover[A]
(Yeah)

[Verse 5]
If I was your [G]girl, believe me
[D]I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
We could [C]groove along and
[D]feel much [A]better[Am]
Let me [G]in[D]
I could do it forever [C]and ever
and [D]ever and [A]ever
[Am]Give me an [G]hour to kiss you
[D]Walk through heaven's door
I'm sure
[C]We don't need no doctor
to feel [D]much [A]better[Am]
Let [G]me in, [C]oh[D]
[C]Forever and ever and [D]ever and ever

[Verse 6]
[D]I[C][D][C][A]
[G]sat[D] on the mountainside
[A]with peace [G]of mind
And [D]I lay by the ocean making l[A]ove
to her with [G]visions clear
[D]Walked for days with no one [A]near[G]
[D]And I return as chained
and bound to you

[Verse 7]
Damn, I wish [A]I was your lover
I'd [Bm]rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and [D]warm
I am everything
To[F#m]night I'll be your mother
I'll [Bm]do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you
won't feel ashamed
[D]Shucks, for me [A]there is no other
[Bm]You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out [D]of it
Damn, I [F#m]wish I was your lover

[Verse 8]
I [Bm]wanna open up, I wanna come inside
I wanna fill you up, I wanna
make you [D]cry
Damn, I wish [A]I was your lover
[Bm]Getting on a subway
And I'm coming [D]uptown
Damn, I [A]wish I was [F#m]your lover
[Bm]Standing on the street corner
Waiting for my luck to [A]change[D]
Damn, I wish [A]I was your lover
[Bm]Feeling like a schoolboy
Too shy and too young, [D]oh
Damn, I [F#m]wish I was your lover
Tryna [Bm]open up, I wanna come inside
I wanna fill you up, I wanna
make you [D]cry
Damn, I wish [F#m]I was your lover
[Bm]Getting on my camel
Gonna ride it uptown, oo[D]h
Damn, I [A]wish I was your lover
[Bm]
