Intro/verse riff bass (without capo) : G|---------------|----------------| D|---------------|----------------| A|----------3----|----------------| E|-3-----3-------|-3-------3-1----| Lilac blowing through the warm summer air Hint of your perfume The smell of your hair Sun is setting and the crows all cry Electrical storm forming in the sky Got a hurt inside that I just gotta heal All I can do is feel, feel, feel Day is dying and the night is born Baby don't leave me so lovelorn A hungry dog howls through the trees It echoes long on the lilac breeze A blackbird sings a song so sad Girl, I want it bad Girl, I want it bad Birds do it, bees do it, I wanna do it The only thing we need to do, Is get down to it Please hear my plea, Know it comes from the heart Baby, you and me got something to start Chorus Why won't you hear me? I'm a desperate man Darling, don't fear me Just say we can Lilac blowing in the warm summer breeze Floating so soft with the cries in the trees Sun is setting and the day is dead How can I get it through your pretty little head A hungry dog howls through the trees It echoes long on the lilac breeze A blackbird sings a song so sad Girl, I want it bad Girl, I want it bad Girl, I want it bad Repeat till the end.
