Why can't I get just one kiss

the general idea.
VERSE 7: [play same as VERSE 4]
-------In your broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs
Can I mix in with your affairs
Share a smoke, make a joke
Grasp and reach for a leg of hope
VERSE 8: [play same as VERSE 4]
-------Words to memorize, words hypnotize
Words make my mouth exercise
Words all fail the magic prize
Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs
VERSE 9: [play same as VERSE 4]
-------Mo my momma momma mo my mother
I would love to love you lover
The city's restless it's ready to pounce
it go here in your bedroom ounce for ounce
REPEAT VERSE 9
VERSE 10:
--------B5
Said I'm giving you a decision to make
Things to lose, things to take
A5
Just as she was about ready to cut it up
B5 [stop]
She said wait a minute honey I'm gonna add it up
VERSE 11:
--------I'm gonna add it up
Add it up
See what you got you gotta
Add it up
and add it up
CHORUS:
------B5
Day...after day...

I get angry...and I will say...
B5
that the day...is in my sight...

B5
when I take a bow...and say goodnight
End with same chords and lots of bass playing.
