C#m 
In the beginning, when life was simple 
F#7 
We were at each other night and day 
C#m 
You were so sensual and so inventive 
F#7 
We said we'd stick together come what may 

C#m 
In the beginning, you were so brutal 
F#7 
You turned the heat on in the afternoon 
C#m 
Get so excited, get so addicted 
F#7 
You had me eating from your golden spoon 

C#m F#7 

A7 
Now I don't wanna spoil the party 
C#m            B7          F#7 
I know it goes against the grain 
F#7 
As the plane touched down I got movies of you 
G#7 
Running through my fevered brain 

C#m                           F#7 
I really love my sweet thing, I can't give her up 
C#m                           F#7 
I really love my sweet thing, I can't give her up 
C#m                           F#7 
I really love my sweet thing, I can't give her up 

C#m 
In the beginning, when we were winning 
F#7 
I was your ever-present love-sick fool 
C#m 
You turned the heat off and left me standing 
F#7 
Freezing by your swimming pool 

C#m 
I can't give it up 
F#7 
I can't give it up 
C#m 
I can't give it up 
F#7 
I can't give it up 

A7 
Now I don't wanna spoil the party 
C#m            B7          F#7 
I know it goes against the grain 
F#7 
As the plane touched down, and the midnight moon 
G#7 
Can't just walk away 

               C#m 
Really love my sweet thing, 
                F#7 
 wanna' lick it up 
               C#m 
Really love my sweet thing, 
                F#7 
 wanna' lick it up
