Title: The Wanting Of You
Album: Fearless Love
Words & Music by Melissa Etheridge
INTRO A D
[A]She's got her sweet children
[F#M]She's got her house she's got some la[A]nd
Her earthly possessions[C#M]
She's got a ring upon her hand[D]
She tried to be a good gi[F#M]rl
She tried to make everything [Bm]right
She tried to [Bm/E]kill the voices
[E]That haunt her each and every night
CHORUS: [A]She looks up to heaven
[D]And wonders why love is so cruel
[A]She loves him won't hurt him
[D]Can't stop the wanting of yo[A]u ohh[D]
[A]She married in high school
[F#M]Oldest was well upon her way
[A]But that wild night - Chicago[C#M]
It left a mark she can't eras[D]e
A phase you'll just get o[F#M]ver
That's what her friends have always [Bm]said
You dip your [Bm/E]toes in water
[E]She's in way over her head
CHORUS: [A]She looks up to heaven
[D]And wonders why love is so cruel
[A]She loves him won't hurt him
[D]Can't stop the wanting of y[F#M]ou
[D] Ohh ohh ohh ohh[F#M]hh[D]
[F#M]Keeping her desire paralyz[D]ed
She c[F#M]atches in the corner of her [D]eyes
Tank top,[Bm] smooth skin, soft lips, tanned [F#M]thighs
Bm D-C#M-Bm-A-Bm-C#M-E
How the hell's this ache ever gonna die.................
[D]And we make our choices
[F#M]Doing what we think is good
[Bm]We deny our own dreams
'Cause[Dsus] we think we've been told we should
We th[D]ink we've been told we should
[A]She looks up to heaven
[D]And wonders why love is so cruel
[A]She loves him won't hurt him
[D]Can't stop the wanting of you
[A]She looks up to heaven
[D]And wonders why love is so cruel
[A]She loves him won't hurt him
[D]Can't stop the wanting of yo[A]u.........[D].
oh oh oh [A]ohhhhh
She can't stop, she can[D]'t stop the wanting of yo[A]u........[D]..
oh oh oh [A]ohhhhh
she can't stop t[D]he wanting, the wanting of [A]you
