Again I have tried to preserve the timing for the chord changes. Chords used here: Emaj 022100 Esus4 022200 Bmaj 224442 Emin 022000 F#min 244222 Gmaj 320003 Amaj x02220 Bmin x24432 Other chords shapes may be used instead. Listen to the original song to find the bits and pieces. And a 12string guitar is the best guitar for this song. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** Intro: Emaj Esus4 Emaj Esus4 *** Main theme: Emaj She looked at me across the room Esus4 Emerging from a silk cocoon Emaj Esus4 Alone beneath Venetian chandeliers Emaj Against the moon her body rocks Esus4 Her eyes were cunning like a fox Emaj Esus4 The wings of passion fly on all frontiers *** Refrain: Bmaj Emaj >From this fire there's no returning Amaj No escape your heart is burning Bmaj Emaj Love becomes a lethal weapon Amaj No one is too smart Emaj ...
