Release me Graham Parker

      F#m   whack whack  F#m   B   A   F#m     F#m  B   F#m

Intro        (drums)     Na na nah etc                        (twice)



Same sequence for verses

       F#m              B         A   F#m          F#m      B     F#m

I can still feel your teethmarks in my neck your footprints on my back

And the gris gris you sprinkled in my bed is starting to make me crack 



(intro once)



I can still hear your twang ringing in my ears, your perfume I still smell

You bought it way down below the mason dixon line

Like your mother you're a southern belle



F#m               B  A F#m             F#m          B     F#m

I said release me,               but please don't let me know



I said release me, but please don't let me go



BRIDGE

E                    D        E                     D

Ah my blood's still boiling, like a snake you come coiling

                                                      F#m

                                           Ready to strike



Instrumental verse  and bridge (sort of) with sax and backing vocals



REPEAT BRIDGE



When the night comes down I get a big black fear, 

Like the clouds hanging up above

I don't want you to possess me, but that's how it is

I ain't nothin but your slave of love. 



I said release me, but please don't let me know

Release me, but please dont let me oh oh oh 



Release me, but please don't let me know

Release me, but please dont let me go



Release me release me baby, Release me release me yeah (repeat and fade)
