I want to be in love - By Melissa Etheridge
From the albumn - Skin.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A great songwriter and truely wonderfull entertainer,
catch a concert if you can, there aren't many ladies out there
who can play guitar like Melissa.
This song is pretty straightforward, standard chords,Sus2 here and there.
It's the voice and rhythm that make it one you'll want to sing along to.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first submissiom - been playing for a year so please forgive
any mistakes - I think it's pretty close to the original.
Corrections comments etc to [email protected]

A(sus2) A, D(sus2) D, Bm7, D(sus2) D, A(sus2)A x 2
Bm7
I have climbed the highest mountain
D
I have sailed across the sea
A
I have wrestled with my demons
A
And woke up with only me
Bm7
I have been around the block
D
Three times, maybe four
F#m A Esus4 E
And I think I deserve just a little more.
A A
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
D D
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Bm7 D A A
Oh oh I wanna be in love
A A
You're standing on the doorstep in the rain
D D
Cos you couldn't wait to see me once again
Bm7 D A A
Oh oh I want to be in love
Bm7
I have made some big mistakes
D
And I've paid a heavy price
A A
I've found a little peace between will and sacrifice
Bm7
I have watched as all my dreams
D
Went walking out the door
F#m A Esus4 E
And I think I deserve just a little more
A A
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
D D
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Bm7 D A A
Oh oh I want to be in love
F#m F#m A
I'm looking for a heart of gold
A Bm7
I'm looking for a hand to hold

A happy end

Strong and kind
A Esus4 E
Somewhere to rest my troubled mind
A A
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
D D
Flowers for no reason but you miss me

Take my hand as they play our song again

Oh I want to be in love
repeat and fade to end....In front of total strangers........
