Intro
[G] [Bm] [Em] [C]
Verse 1
[G]
Baby, it's been a hell of a day
[Bm]
I've been needing you like an Arizona rain
[Em]
In the middle of May
[C]
That's how much I'm missing you, babe
[G]
Tonight, we got nothing to do
[Bm]
It's been too long since I got tangled up with you
[Em]
In them linen sheets
[C]
And darling, it's killing me
[Am]
I don't want anything else
[C]
No, I can't keep my hands to myself
Chorus
[G]
So turn off that record
[Bm]
I only want to hear your heartbeat tonight
[Em]
Turn off that TV
[C]
I ain't watching nothing but you for a while
[G]
Let's turn off the world, babe
[Bm]
'Cause right now, you're the only thing on my mind
[Em]
I can't look away, so what do you say
[C]
When I slip that dress off
[G]
We leave the lights on
Verse
[G]
Why would I want to be in the dark
[Bm]
When that body you got is a damn work of art
[Em]
Right in front of me?
[C]
Oh baby, I wanna see
[Am]
Every inch of your skin from your head to your toes
[C]
Till there ain't no place I don't know
Chorus
[G]
Girl, turn off that record
[Bm]
I only want to hear your heartbeat tonight
[Em]
Turn off that TV
[C]
I ain't watching nothing but you for a while
[G]
Let's turn off the world, babe
[Bm]
'Cause right now, you're the only thing on my mind
[Em]
I can't look away, so what do you say
[C]
When I slip that dress off
[G] [Bm]
We leave the lights on
[Em] [C]
We leave the lights on

[G]
So turn off that record
[Bm]
I only want to hear your heartbeat tonight

Turn off that TV
[C]
I ain't watching nothing but you for a while

'Cause right now, you're the only thing on my mind

We leave the lights on
[Em] [C]
We leave the lights on
