Hi there,

There's this guitar lick in this song which i believe to be quite nice and 
funky. There was no chord or tab to this song so i thought i might as well submit 
one. Feel free to alter this, where you find errors. When they play it live the 
guitar player does some 'jazzy' chords but i think i've pretty much been able to 
find the normal chords, hoping this way it still sounds ok enough. This guy is 
from the Netherlands (Holland) and just got a record deal with Motown Records. 
Hearing this song i thought he deserved it.... Enjoy

Ooohhh (Scream)   'Dm9 lick'

Verse:
    'Dm9 lick'
There's a song in my head and it's looking for a way to get out.
     Bb                   Am                              'Dm9 lick'
Out of all of the things inside, this one is screamin' out loud.

These words on my mind, I try to understand what they mean.
     Bb                   Am                                    G    A
And I feel them coming, it's gonna knock you right off of your feet, ooh.

Chorus
     A#                   F                           C(sus4?)
'Cause I always see a sunshine that keeps on following me.
Not a cloud in the sky, 'cause you're always right next to me.
     A#                   F                     D#    Dm
I'll do you no wrong, maybe I should just let it be.
          Gm                              Am           C         
'Cause I know you're gonna have your wicked way with me,
           C#            'Dm9 lick'
your wicked way with me.

(instrumental cyberthingie on the radio edit) (4 bars)

Verse 2: (same as nr 1)

Now the words on my lips are rollin' right out of my mouth.
Baby, give me your hand, I'll take you right out of this town.
Well, nothing's been said and not enough has been done.
Now you're screamin' out loud and not because I'm doing you wrong.

Chorus
     A#                   F                           C(sus4?)
'Cause I always see a sunshine that keeps on following me.
Not a cloud in the sky, 'cause you're always right next to me.
     A#                   F                     D#    Dm
I'll do you no wrong, maybe I should just let it be.
          Gm                              Am           C         
'Cause I know you're gonna have your wicked way with me,
           C#            'Dm9 lick'
your wicked way with me.
