Subject: CRD: Don't You Need (Melissa Etheridge)

I posted this to a.g.t late last year, but it didn't get archived at 
nevada with the rest of the ME tabs I posted at that point.  I hadn't 
saved the file, but luckily an (ahem) extremely organized friend (hi, 
Chet!) *did* save it, and sent it to me.. so I'm reposting it now.

As with all my posts, it probably could be formatted better, etc, etc, 
and, no, I give no real idea of timing.  But I figure if you're gonna 
play this one, you've at least *heard* it once..  it's not *that* 
difficult.

                         Don't You Need
 
Em7           C(9)
I had a dream late last night
 
Em7                      C(9)
The water was running low
 
       Em7
and my fields were on fire
 
C(9)
burning my sky.
 
Em7                     C(9)
My body was moving slow
 
B7
and when I awoke I tasted the sweat 
 
     A7                 Em7
of desire on my mouth.  And I
 
                C(9)                  Em7
realized my heart had abducted my mind
 
                              C(9)
and they were last seen headed south.
 
     B7
Now I can't sleep, I'm so wired,
 
         A7
and I find myself screaming out
 
Baug      Em7              D
Don't you need?  Don't you want?
 
          C(9)
Can't you taste it when you're alone?
 
          Em7             D
Don't you cry?  Don't you feel?
 
            C(9)
Sometimes I wonder if you are real.
 
                B7
Don't you bleed?  Don't you need?
 
[instrumental 3 full bars, lyrics on 4th]
Em7     C(9)     Em7      C(9)
 
           Em7
There's no quenching of thirst
 
C(9)              Em7                   C(9)
there's no relief for the hungry at heart
 
Em7                           C(9)
And as far as you're concerned I'm just a thief
 
Em7                      C(9)
entertaining in the dark.
 
  B7
But it's you that holds the cards
 
   A7
Now that the joker is wild.
 
Baug      Em7             D
Don't you need?  Don't you want
 
          C(9)
Can't you taste it when you're alone?
 
          Em7             D
Don't you cry?  Don't you feel?
 
            C(9)
Sometimes I wonder if you are real.
 
               B7 A7             C(9)
Don't you bleed?  Don't you need?
 
D
Don't you want to lay it down
 
C(9)
and feel your skin against the ground?
 
D                          C(9)
Don't you want to ride the storm
 
 
and then sleep inside the calm?
 
D
Don't you want to get that high?
 
C/E                     D/F#
Don't you wanna be satisfied?
 
                                 Cmaj7
Well, if you don't get that from me--
 
B7        Em7
Don't you need?
 
[instrumental 3 full bars]
Cmaj7    Em7    Cmaj7
 
Em7           C(9)
I had a dream late last night
 
Em7                      C(9)
The water was running low
 
       Em7
and my fields were on fire,
 
C(9)            Em7              C(9)
burning my sky.  How was I to know
 
   B7
that I burn every night in my dreams
 
         A7
and only morning can set me free....
