[Intro]
E C#m E C#m

[Verse]
E                               C#m                         E                      C#m
You never asked me what I wanted. You only asked me why.
   E                             C#m                              E             B        E F#m
I never thought that so much trouble was a restin' on my reply,
G#m       A                                      E
I could say it was the nights when I was lonely
        A                                            C#m
and you were the only one who'd come.
             A                                    E
I could tell you that I like your sensitivity,
          F#                                              B
when you know it's the way that you walk.

[Chorus]
A                                                        E
Why do you have to say that there's always someone
              A                             E
who can do it better than I can?
        A                                                 E
But don't you think that I know that walking on the water
           B            N.C.                  B B B B B B B
won't make me a miracle man?

[Verse]
E                                  C#m
Baby's gotta have the things she wants.
                          E                                        C#m
You know she's gotta have the things she loves.
                   E                            C#m
She's got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder
              E                     B         E       F#m
and her black patent leather gloves.
G#m       A                                 E
And I'm doing everything just tryin' to please her,
          A                                  C#m
even crawling around on all fours.
           A                                          E
Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy,
              F#                                  B
but she still seems to want for more.

[Ulangi Chorus]

[Interlude]
E C#m E C#m

[Verse]
E                                      C#m
Yeah they're givin' you a bad reputation
         E                                           C#m
just because you've never been denied.
E                                            C#m
You try to say you've done it all before.
                   E                     B           E    F#m
Baby, you know that you just get tired.
G#m   A                            E
Yet everybody loves you so much, girl.
          A                                               C#m
I just don't know how you stand the strain.
              A                            E
Oh, but I'm the one who's here tonight
                   F#                         B
and I don't wanna do it all in vain.

Ulangi [Chorus]

E C#m              E      C#m
A miracle
E C#m              E      C#m
