{section: Verse i}
They say that love often passes in a second, and
[G]Yo[D]u can never [D]catch it up[A], [D]so I'm    [D]
[G]Ha[D]nging [D]on to you as th[A]ou[D]gh eternity beckoned, but it's
[Em7]Clear that the match is rough
Common-sense will tell me not to try and continue, but I'm
[A7]After a piece of that diamond in [A7]you, So
[A7]Keep an eye open, My  [A7]
[Bm]Spirit ain't broken, Your
[C]Love's so incredible, Your
[G]Body's so edible, You
[A7]Give me an overdose of love,
But just a little is en[A7]ough.

{section: Verse ii}
I'm like a connoseiur of champagne cognac, The
[G]Pe[D]rfume nea[D]rly beats the [A]ta[D]ste     [D]
[G]I [D]eat an oyster[D] and I fee[A]l [D]the contact, But
[Em7]More than one would be a waste
Some people want an endless line, that's true, But
[A7]All I have to have's a littl[A7]e time with you, A
[A7]Smile sets me reeling, A      [A7]
[Bm]Kiss feels like stealing, Your
[C]Love is like heroin, This
[G]Addict is mellowing,
[A7]I can't pretend that I'm tough,
When just a little is eno[A7]ugh.
                      [G] [D]     [D]   [A] [D]     [D]    [G] [D]    [D]   [A] [D]    [D]
{section: Instrumental break}
Dm / / / C(no 3rd) | Dm [etc, repeated ad infinitum]
Just like a sailor heading into the sea, There's a
[G]Ga[D]le blowing[D] in my face, Th[A]e [D]        [D]
[G]Hi[D]gh wind sca[D]res me[A] b[D]ut I need the breeze, And I
[Em7]Can't head for any other place
Life would seem so easy on the other tack, But
[A7]Even a hurricane won't turn me [A7]back, You
[A7]Might be an island, on [A7]the
[Bm]Distant horizon, but the
[C]Little I see looks like
[G]Heaven to me, and I don't
[A7]Care if the ocean gets rough,
'Cause just a little is[A7] enough.
                         E(no 3rd) / / / | x 4

Common-sense will tell me not to try and continue, but I'm

                      E(no 3rd) / / / | [repeat to fade]

This same process is happening throughout the 'E(no 3rd)' sections
towards
the end.  If you like, slide from D to E (power-chords) in the same
way.
