[Intro]
A E/G# C#m B
A E/G# C#m B

[Verse]
              A      E/G# C#m B
Take off your make-up,
              A      E/G# C#m B
take off your clothes
        A      E/G# C#m B
I wanna wake up
             A   E/G# C#m B
next to your nose
              A         E/G#
Would you let me linger on your lips
C#m
I'm still wrapped
            B
'round your fingertips
    A             E/G#
And if I had me a rocket
     C#m             B
ship I just fly back home
            A                  E/G#
'Cause I've looked in New York City
         C#m               B
And I've checked in Boston too
     A                        E/G#
I've found a couple that were pretty
        C#m                   B
But I'm still gonna stay with you

          A    E/G# C#m B
I'm gonna stay with you
          A    E/G# C#m B
I'm gonna stay with you
              A    E/G# C#m B
Why don't you slow down?
              A   E/G# C#m B
I can feel it all now

[Verse 2]
Your heart is raising,
     A    E/G# C#m B
I'm still here
                       A    E/G#
Let your hair down and fear not
       C#m           B
'Cause I am going nowhere
          A                 E/G#
Yes, I've looked in San Francisco
      C#m                 B
And I checked all through L.A.
  A                 E/G#
I looked in Dallas, Texas
              C#m             B
But something didn't feel the same
     A                 E/G#
So I looked in Detroit City
         C#m               B
And then I checked back at Duke
  A                        E/G#
I found a couple that were pretty
        C#m                   B
But I'm still gonna stay with you
