Tempted, by Squeeze.
CAPO on the Second Fret.
Introduction: A A7 D Dsus2
A C#m F#m
I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face
B Dm
Pajamas, a hairbrush, new shoes and a case
Am Em F G
I said to my reflection, let's get out of this place
C D F
Passed the church and the steeple, the laundry on the hill
A A7
Billboards and the buildings
G B Am D
Memories of it still keep calling and calling
Am F D Dsus2
But forget it all I know I will
-----
Chorus:
A A7 D Dsus2
Tempted by the fruit of another
A A7 D Dsus2
Tempted but the truth is discovered
B E
What's been going on now that you have gone
A A7
There's no other
D A A7
Tempted by the fruit of another
D Bm Dm
Tempted but the truth is discovered
-----
A C#m F#m
I'm at the carpark, the airport, the baggage carousel
B Dm
The people keep on writing, and wishing I was well
Am Em F G
I said, It's no occasion, it's no story I can tell
C D F
At my bedside, empty pocket, a foot without a sock
A A7
Your body gets much closer
G B Am D
I fumble for the clock, alarmed by the seduction
Am F D Dsus2
I wish that it would stop
-----
Chorus, repeated:
A A7 D Dsus2
Tempted by the fruit of another
A A7 D Dsus2
Tempted but the truth is discovered
B E
What's been going on now that you have gone
A A7
There's no other
D A A7
Tempted by the fruit of another
D Bm Dm
Tempted but the truth is discovered
-----
A C#m F#m
I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune all for you
B Dm
But it's not my conscience that hates to be untrue
Am Em F G
I asked of my reflection, tell me what is there to do
-----
REPEAT CHORUS.
