            G
You put the boom-boom into my heart
            Am7                     G
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts

My best friend told me what you did last night
Am               Bm
Left me sleepin' in my bed

You take the gray skies out of my way
             Am7                     G
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day

Turned a bright spark into a flame

My beats per minute never been the same
