Passionate Kisses

------------------------------------

* These chords match Mary-Chapin Carpenter's cover version.

* Lucinda Williams' recording of this song is in E, so you'd have to put

a capo at the fourth fret to match the recording if you use these chords.

* Mary-Chapin Carpenter's recording is in D, and I know she plays it in

C with a capo at the second fret.

* In the instrumental bits, I put bar lines (|) to separate measures;

everywhere else in the song, one chord is one measure.

* The rhythm guitar doesn't actually play all those chords in the intro,

but it sounds neat. (It actually plays just C G Am F.)

* Mix up some (9)'s with the C's and F's.

Is it too much to ask

I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back

Food to fill me up

And warm clothes and all that stuff

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have all of this, and

Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses

C C(addF) C | G G(addE) G | Am Am(9) Am | F |

from you

Is it too much to demand

I want a full house and a rock and roll band

Pens that won't run out of ink

And cool quiet and time to think

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have all of this, and

Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses

from you

Dm7 G F F(9) Dm7 E7 Am G G

Do I want too much

Am I going overboard to want that touch

I shout it out to the night

"Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right"

Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I)

Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I)

Shouldn't I have all of this, and

Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses from

C F [the F is actually single notes: C-F-F-F-F-E-D---]

from you

Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses

Someone met John Jenning's (MCC's guitarist) after a concert and asked

him how he plays this song in concert; he wrote it down in standard musical

notation, someone sent it to me, and I converted it to tablature. (But

there's no guarantee that this is where John Jennings puts his fingers.)

The ">" marks are accents.

[Note that this is NOT the recorded version; this is how Jennings plays it

on stage with a smaller band. The recorded version has more than one

electric guitar.]
