D7
Sweet as the smell of success
G           G/F#     Em
 Her body's warm and wet
D7
She gets me thru this God awful loneliness
G          G/F#       Em
 A natural high butterfly Oh I,
   C     Em    Am
I need, need, need her

Just like a willow tree
A breath of spring you see
And oh boy you don't know what she do to me
She makes me sweat and forget who I am
I need, need, need, need, need her

C                         F  E              Am         D7
Well I was wondering how long this would go on, on and on
         G              Em           D7
Well I thought I could never be surprised
But could it be that I bit my own tongue
Oh yeah, it's so hard to swallow when you're wrong

A bird of paradise
Sunrise in her eyes
God only knows such a sweet surprise
I was blind she blew my mind think that I
I love, love, love, love, love her
I love her
I love her
I love her
I love her
I love her
Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love
Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love
