[C#m] [D#m] [E] [Gb]
[B] [B] [B] [B open]
VERSE 1:
Whenever I'm
[C#m] with him
[D#m]
Something in-
[G#m]-side
[G#m]
Starts to
[C#m] burnin'
[D#m]
And I'm
[G#m] filled with
[G#m] desire
PRE-CHORUS 1:
[C#m] Could it be, a
[D#m] devil in me
Or is
[E] this the way love's sup-
[Gb]-posed to be?
CHORUS:
It's like a
[B] heat wave
Burnin' in my
[B] heart
I can't keep from
[B] crying
Tearin' me a-
[B]-part
VERSE 2:
Whenever he
[C#m] calls my name
[D#m]
Soft, low,
[G#m] sweet and plain
[G#m]
I
[C#m] feel, right
[D#m] there
I
[G#m] feel that burning
[G#m] flame
PRE-CHORUS 2:
Has
[C#m] high blood pressure got a
[D#m] hold on me
Or is
[E] this is the way love's sup-
[Gb]-posed to be
