Love without Greed


Dsus4 xx0233

Intro D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Bm G A

D Dsus4 D Dsus4
I can see a man, well dressed and tanned
Bm G D A
Collecting you in secret in a long sedan
D Dsus4 Dsus4
I can hear you laugh at all his jokes
Bm G D A
Taking everything that's offered until it chokes

A D
And it makes me want to get a lock and key
A D
Hold you down in one place for me
G D Bm
Can't own the flesh and blood I need
G A D Dsus4 D
Can't have love without greed, without greed oh oh oh

D Dsus4 D Dsus4
He may get your kiss and believe that it's his
Bm G D A
But you know baby I hit your heart where where the others only missed
D Dsus4 D Dsus4
You can ease your heat in a penthouse suite
Bm G D A
While I'm in a hotel with some hanger-on under those dirty sheets

A D
And it makes me want to get a lock and key
A D
Hold you down in one place for me
G D Bm
Can't own the flesh and blood I need
G A D
Can't have love without greed,

D Bm
Love without greed would give me some hope
G D
When I reach out in the night and grope
G F#m Bm E A
But there's nothing there but the next day coming in
A7 D G
And the alarm bell goes ring ring ring ring ring
A D G
it goes ring ring ring ring ring
A D Bm G Bm G E A A7
it goes ring ring ring ring ring

D Dsus4 D Dsus4
You can ease your heat in a penthouse suite
Bm G D A
While I'm in a hotel with some hanger-on under those dirty sheets
A D
And it makes me want to get a lock and key
A D
Hold you down in one place for me
G D Bm
Can't own the flesh and blood I need
G A D
Can't have love without greed,
G D Bm
Can't own the flesh and blood I need
G A D
Can't have love without greed,
D Dsus4
Can't have, love without greed
