John Hiatt Something Wild Lyrics

NB: Capo 1st Fret for the album version; Live versions usually played without capo. All
and tab relative to the capo (or actual if playing from live version)
Intro:
4 Bars Drums
Chords:
Verse:
Sometimes I don??t even move a muscle
Baby when you lie awake at night
I think I??ve got nine lives in these corpuscles
Cause girl, you know sometimes I don??t think right
Pre-Chorus:
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it??s nothing at all
A hungry wolf, or an agry child
Chorus:
Or something wild
Something wild
Something wild - tell me love is
Something wild - tell me love is
Verse:
It??s not as if we could think that things were one way
And they would all just be that way right now
When I was a kid I thought that someday
I could tame this lion heart, some way, somehow
Pre-Chorus:
Now I??m hungry for the love
That doesn??t know what it??s dreamin?? of
Raging for the meek and mild
Chorus:
Like something wild
Something wild
Something wild - tell me love is
Something wild - tell me love is
Bridge:
There??s a hole where the wind blows through
And some curtains hung
But I can??t hid a thing from you
You know where I come from
(Solo 4 bars)
Final Verse: (Lead only, no Rhythm)
Well I tried getting there under my own steam
??til my very last chance was shot
Now you??re under my skin like a submarine
I can feel you in my veins running hot
Now if it??s more than a new pair of jeans, a new car, some pocket money
And a place to go
Then we better get up and scream at the top of our lungs like it
Was gonna die if we didn??t make it so
Pre-Chorus:
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it??s nothing at all
An angry wolf, or a hungry child
Chorus:
Or something wild
Something wild
Something wild - tell me love is
Something wild - tell me love is
Outro:
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Enjoy!
