Douwe Bob - Take me home
Key: Eb
[intro]
Eb Ebmaj7
[couplet]
Eb Ebmaj7 Cm7
The wind carries her perfume through an open door,
Gm#5 Ab
into a corner street cafe.
Ab-5
And she's to close for comfort.
Ab/Bb
but for holding she's too far away.
Eb Ebmaj7
And the days are growing shorter
Cm7 Gm#5
as the nights are oh so long.
Ab
Since she's been gone I draw my strength
Ab-5
from memories and melodies,
Ab/Bb
that's how I wrote this song.
[chorus]
Eb Ebmaj7
And take me home Johnny,
Cm7 Gm#5 Ab-5 Ab Ab/Bb
Cause I can't take to see her with another guy.
Eb Ebmaj7 Cm7 Gm#5
And isn't it funny it seems like yesterday
Ab Ab-5 Ab Bb9 Bb9/B
when she told me her love was mine.
[bridge]
Cm7
But she's to cool for lovin'
Cm7/F
and she's to cold I've learned.
Cm7
She's too hard to handle,
Ab Bb9
she's too hard I'll burn.
Eb Ab
And I went out in the fields today,
Eb Ab
to scream out loud and call her name.
Gm#5 Ab
You wanna fly, I wanna bound.
Ab Ab/Bb Eb
The less you give, the more I want.
