A Slow Song
by Joe Jackson

Intro: C, Am, C, Am, C, Am, C

Verse 1:
Am                C                     Am          C
Music has charms they say
Am                  Gm7
But in some people's hands
Fm7   Dbmaj7        Fm7       Dbmaj7          Ab
It         becomes a savage beast
                     Bb
Can't they control it
Ab                         Bb       C
Why don't they hold it back
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/joe_jackson/a_slow_song_crd.html ]
Verse 2:
You see my friend and me
Don't have an easy day
And at night we dance not fight
We need the energy
If not the sympathy

Bridge:
Eb         Fm7
But I'm brutalized by bass
Eb                Fm7
And terrorized by treble
Eb                  Fm7
I'm open to change my mood but
Eb                     Fm7
I always get caught in the middle

Chorus:
Dm7
And I get tired of DJ's

Why is it always what he plays

I'm gonna push right through

I'm gonna tell him too

Tell him to play us
                    C       Am          Fm7, A#, A, G
Play us a slow song (4 times. On the fourth do not play the G)

Verse 3:
It's late- I'm winding down
Am I the only one
To want a strong and silent sound
To pick me up and undress me
Lay me down and caress me

Verse 4:
I feel your touch my hand
And whisper in my ear
Ask me how I'm feeling now
And I want to get near you
But I can't even hear you

Bridge 2:
But this is a fine romance
If we have to be so demanding
We need just one more dance to
Leave here with an understanding

Repeat Chorus

Solo:
Ab, Bb (4 times)
Fm7

Repeat Chorus:

End with:
C, Am
