PASSIONATE KISSES (Lucinda Williams)
------------------------------------
Mary-Chapin Carpenter's recording is in D, and I know she plays it in
C with a capo at the second fret.
In the instrumental bits, I put bar lines (|) to separate measures;
everywhere else in the song, one chord is one measure.
The rhythm guitar doesn't actually play all those chords in the intro,
but it sounds neat.
Mix up some (9)'s with the C's and F's.

C C(addF) C | G G(addE) G(4) | Am Am(9) Am | F |
(intro; play twice)
[C] Is it too [G]much to ask?
I want a [Am7]comfortable bed that won't [F]hurt my back
[C] Food to [G]fill me up
And [Am7]warm clothes and [F]all that stuff
[C] Shouldn't I have [Em7]this,
Shouldn't I have [Am7]this?
Shouldn't I have [F]all of this, and
[C] Passionate [F]kisses
[C] Passionate [F]kisses, whoa oh oh
[C] Passionate [F]kisses from
C C(addF) C | G G(addE) G | Am Am(9) Am | F |
you
Is it too much to demand
I want a full house and a rock and roll band
Pens that won't run out of ink
And cool quiet and time to think
(chorus)
(Guitar solo; mostly the same chords as the verse, but it goes to G instead
of F the second time, then back to C.)
Do I want too much?
Am I going overboard to want that touch?
I shouted out to the night
Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right
(chorus)
(Repeat chorus, then fade on intro chords)
Someone met John Jenning's (MCC's guitarist) after a concert and asked
him how he plays this song in concert; he wrote it down in standard musical
notation, and I converted it to tablature. (But there's no guarantee that
this is where John Jennings puts his fingers.) The ">" marks are accents.
