This song was written by Robert Palmer.
This chord and lyric rendition has been done by ear by yours truly,
just for the hell of it!!!
A fairly easy song to get going.
The trick is in the syncopated rhythm of the
guitar / bass / drums combo - ba-bum-bum-bum-pause-bum.
In the verses & choruses SLIDE up (D up to E, etc)
to the chord at the start of each bar.
Intro: D/E...D/E...G/A...G/A...[This is also the general rhythm of the verses]
