[Intro]
Am
 
Am
I really want you
I really want you
 
[Verse 1]
Am
Many Prophets preach on bended knees
C
Many clerics wasted wine
F
Do the bloody sheets and those cobbled streets mean
G
I have wasted time?
Am
Are there silver shores on paradise?
C
Can I come in from the cold?
F
I killed a man in a far away land
G
My enemy, I'm told
 
[Chorus]
Am
I really want you to really want me
 
But I really don’t know if you can do that (really want you)
C
I know you want to know what’s right
 
But I know so hard for you to do that (really want you)
F
Time's running out as it often does
 
And often dictates that you can't do that (really want you)
G
Fate can't break this feeling inside
 
That's burning up through my veins...
C
I really want you
Am
I really want you
G
I really want you
F   G
Now...
F                       G
No matter what I say or do
    C            C/B      Am
The message isn’t getting through
           F                G
And you’re listening to the sound
               C
Of my breaking heart
C
I really want you
 
I really want you
 
[Verse 2]
C
Is a poor man rich in solitude?
Am
Or will mother earth complain?
F
Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but
G
Lady luck for rain?
Am
They say a million people bow and scrape
C
To an effigy of gold
      F
I saw life begin, in the ship we're in
   G
And history unfold
 
[Back to Chorus]
 
C
I really want you
I really want you
I really want you
