Marty Robbins - Tonight Carmen
Ca[G]rmen, Ca[G7]rmen, [G]Car-[G7]m -[G]e-[C]n
(verse 1)
To[C]night I am aching, my body is shaking
Tonight Carmen's coming back h[G]ome
Tonight there'll be no room for tears in my bedroom
To[G7]night Carmen's coming back h[C]ome
Tonight as I stand here I notice my hand here
Is trem[C7]bling as never be[F]fore
c
My feelings I can't hide, resistance has all died
My pr[G]ide will rush outside
The moment she w[G7]alks through the d[C]oor
(verse 2)
The lips that have kissed her, that's loved her and missed her
Are lips that have cursed her at night
In anguish and torment I've cursed as the night went
I've thought of just taking these two hands and breaking
The body I'm waiting to touch
I find while I'm waiting, there's no time for hating
While anticipating
The woman I've wanted so much
(verse 3)
I've pl[C]aced pretty flowers to brighten the hours
I've put brand new sheets on the b[G]ed
I'm nervous, I'm trembling, recalling, remembering
The w[G7]ay that she tosses her h[C]ead
I've given much thought to the fact that I ought to
Have m[C7]ore control over my l[F]ife
How can I fight it, how c[C]an I deny it,
There's [G]no way to hide it The love that I h[G7]ave for my w[C]ife
