Lyrics of a song Graham Parker - Heat Treatment

Thanks to Robert Watson robert@gcmac.demon.co.uk

for a complete revision of this chart. 



Robert's chart has the Em over the word "treatment"... 

I like playiong G G Em as below.  Try it (both ways) and 

let me know what you prefer. 



CHORUS

VERSE

G                       C            D            G

Now when the sun fades out and the street lights rise

G            C          D     G

News makes print and a baby cries

G                 C              D             G

That's when you might find me waiting on the day

G       C        D        G

Uh huh baby I'm wasting away

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

VERSE

Well a out in the jungle there's a war going down

You wind up eating all the friends you've found

But you know and I know and it's understood

Let's get out while the gettings good

 

CHORUS (then after " the world is turning")

 

BRIDGE

Am                     D

I tried to eat but I could not swallow

Am                     D

Mouth got dry and my tongue got hollow

Am                     D         Em

When you call babe you know I'll follow

C                 D                  G

In your love baby I want to wallow yeah

G           G        G        C  D

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah - yeah eah 

F    G    F     G    F    G   C    D  A  

eah ---                                 Huh

(modulates to A)

A              F#m

I want to burn baby (SIX TIMES)

A              F#m         D         E

I want to burn while the flame is burning

F# F E A E F F#  repeated with an extra A sometimes before the E F F#



in tab on the bottem 2 strings

A ------0------    repeated

E 2-1-0---0-1-2
