Melanie Safka - Right About Now
CAPO: 2nd Fret
G D
Love is both high and low
Em D C
On one level, it's the feel of it all
D C
On the other, it's dreams and it's truth, yeah
D G
On the other, it's clean and it's blue, but...
D Em
Tonight I'm not thinking of higher things
Bm C
I'm thinking about the boy who just walked in
D C
How I'd like to feel good again
D
When I'm far away from you
CHORUS:
Em D G
So, tell me what to do, right about now
Em D G
I'm in love with you, right about now
C D
I've been away so long, feeling so alone
C D G
Tell me what to do, tell me what to do
Em G
Sha la, sha la la laa la la, yeah
Em
Oh whoa, yeah
G
Right about now
Em G
Sha la, sha la la laa la la, yeah
Em G
Oh whoa, whoa
D
Darling help me to be strong
Em D C
I'm not the kind of woman who normally carries on, but
D C
I've been away so long
D G
Without the love of you, and
D Em
I meet so much in the way
Bm C
Of resistance and hostility everywhere
D C
You know I need someone to care
D
When I'm up there, in my room
CHORUS:
Em D G
So, tell me what to do, right about now
Em D G
I'm in love with you, right about now
C D
I've been away so long, feeling so alone
C D G
Tell me what to do, tell me what to do
Em G
Sha la, sha la la laa la la, yeah
Em G
Oh whoa, yeah
Em G
Sha la, sha la la laa la la, yeah
Em G
Oh whoa, whoa
INSTRUMENTAL: G D Em D C D C D G
D
But tonight I mustn't think about him
Em Bm C
Mustn't think about the boy who just walked in, but
D C
Maybe if we just hold hands
D G
But I know what that'll lead up to
