Passionate Kisses Lyrics

PASSIONATE KISSES (Lucinda Williams)
* Mary-Chapin Carpenter's recording is in D, and I know she plays it in
C with a capo at the second fret.
* In the instrumental bits, I put bar lines (|) to separate measures;
everywhere else in the song, one chord is one measure.
* The rhythm guitar doesn't actually play all those chords in the intro,
but it sounds neat.
* Mix up some (9)'s with the C's and F's.
C C(addF) C | G G(addE) G(4) | Am Am(9) Am | F |
(intro; play twice)
Is it too much to ask?
I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back
Food to fill me up
And warm clothes and all that stuff
Shouldn't I have this,
Shouldn't I have this?
Shouldn't I have all of this, and
Passionate kisses
Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh
Passionate kisses from
C C(addF) C | G G(addE) G | Am Am(9) Am | F |
you
Is it too much to demand
I want a full house and a rock and roll band
Pens that won't run out of ink
And cool quiet and time to think
(chorus)
(Guitar solo; mostly the same chords as the verse, but it goes to G instead
of F the second time, then back to C.)
Do I want too much?
Am I going overboard to want that touch?
I shouted out to the night
Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right
(chorus)
(Repeat chorus, then fade on intro chords)
Someone met John Jenning's (MCC's guitarist) after a concert and asked
him how he plays this song in concert; he wrote it down in standard musical
notation, and I converted it to tablature. (But there's no guarantee that
this is where John Jennings puts his fingers.) The ">" marks are accents.
Here it is in C (capo 2; I changed a couple notes to make it easier):
