Intro 
 
(Spoken) 
D         C                                       D
Hey baby, I guess you're wondering what I'm doing home so soon 
C
Naw, I ain't sick.  
D                      C
It's just this morning when you told me 
                                       D
You didn't feel like you were the most important thing 
                    C
in my life, anymore  
                   D                       C
Well that broke my heart, so I had to turn around 
         D                                C           D
And come back and tell you what I'm gonna do about it   
 N.C.                         C
I'm gonna light the bedroom candles 
D                         Em
Take the phone out of the wall 
                               C
We can lay around and talk for hours 
D                         Em
Or maybe we won't talk at all 
                    G/B C
I'm gonna resurrect the love 
                       D
That slipped away from us 
                             Em
And the man that you've been missin' 
                   C     D     C9
Startin' with some long, slow, kisses 
 
(Spoken) 
D                             C
I just wanna let you know how ashamed I am 
               D
For making you feel that way 
C                        D
Darlin' I'm so sorry - I guess I've just been spendin' 
            C                   D
too much on making a living and way too little on making love 
C                                                    D
But if you can just find it in your heart to forgive me 
C                                  D
Girl, I swear from this moment on. You'll always know where 
    C          D
you stand with me 
N.C.                          C
I'm gonna light the bedroom candles 
D                         Em
Take the phone out of the wall 
                               C
We can lay around and talk for hours 
D                         Em
Or maybe we won't talk at all 
                    G/B C
I'm gonna resurrect the love 
                       D
That slipped away from us 
                             Em
And the man that you've been missin' 
                   C     D     C9
Startin' with some long, slow, kisses 
                    C
What really matters most 
                   D
Is you and me this close 
           Em
Feeling no distance 
             C     D     C9
Sharin' some long, slow, kisses 
                  C     D     C9
Sharin' with some long, slow, kisses 
 
 
NOTE: It's hard to play the verses without listening to the song over and over 
again. Since it's partly a recitation, you have to listen carefully.
