The Pretenders - My Baby

      
 
 Happy Song:) mostly based around an E chord,
 The Esus4 in the verses could equally be an Asus2/E,
 but it looks like a Esus4 live.

   E           Esus4   E Esus4 E Esus4 
 I want you to love me 
              E            Esus4 
 That's all I want from you
  E             Aadd9  G6 
 I want you to love me 
     E   Esus4 E Esus4 E 
 One day 
 
 E            Esus4  
 I know I'm a peasant
 E            Esus4   
 Dressed as a princess
     Aadd9                     
 But that doesn't mean you have
                        E Esus4 E 
 To take my clothes away
 
 Badd11              Aadd9 G6 
  If I could show you 
                Badd11 
 Some happiness 
                          Aadd9 G6        Badd11 
 Then I would feel Like a real  princess 
                       Aadd9 G6 E Esus4 
 That to me would be success 
     E  Esus4 
 My baby
 
 I seen you dancin'
 A natural beauty
 You make this dive
 Seem sublime
 You really get
 To the heart of the music
 You're the poetry of time
 
 If there's a method
 To writing a song
 How come I'm getting it wrong?
 You write the beautiful songs
 
  G6                  Fmaj7 
 C'mon, c'mon, c'mon baby
  G6           Fmaj7 
 Mm take my hand
       G6 Fmaj7 
 Yeah! 
   G6                  Fmaj7 G6 
 C'mon, c'mon, c'mon show me 
         Fmaj7           Aadd9  E 
 To the love land to the love land
