Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues and R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt.
Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more.

1 Struck by the moon 4j7 Risin' too soon / 1 I feel a pain deep inside me 1 Cold northern winds 4j7 A fist in my chin / 1 Makin' me wild for you baby
|1 6- What can I do |5 6- | To get back to you 4 1 I'm feeling desperate and lonely 1 The city's a river 4j7 Of cold misery / 1 Makin' me wild for you baby
|3- 6- I'm down on my knees |4/5 Hear me cry for you baby |3- 6- Cold misery 4 I would die for you baby |3- 6- I pray you will see |4/6 |4/5 | These tears I cry
Nites I can't sleep My tears are cheap I'm losin' hold of my senses I can't contain All of this pain And it's makin' me wild for you baby
