do you remember me? how we used to be
F C
helpless and happy and blind?
D7 G# G C G
sunk without hope in a haze of good dope and cheap wine?
C Cmaj7
laying on the living – room floor on those indian
F C
tapestry cushions you made
D7 G# G C C7
thinking of calling our first born jasmine or jade .

F C
don’t do it , don’t do it , don’t do it to me ,
F
don’t think about it , don’t think about it , don’t think about it ,
C C7
don’t think about what it might be ,
D7 F C
don’t get up to open the door , just stay with me here on the floor ,
D7 G C G
it’s gonna get cold in the 1970’s .

C Cmaj7
you wouldn’t listen , you thought you knew better ,
F C
you just to had to speak to that man .
D7 G# G C
please believe me , i’ll visit whenever i can .
C Cmaj7
laying in your little white room with no windows and
F C
three square sedations a day ,
D7 G# G
you plead with the doctor who’s running the show ,
C G C
“please don’t take jasmine away and leave me alone!”

F C
don’t do it , don’t do it , don’t do it , don’t do it to me ,
F
don’t think about it , don’t think about it , don’t think about it ,
C C7
don’t think about what it might be ,
D7 F C
don’t get up to open the door , just stay with me here on the floor ,
D7 G C G
it’s gonna get cold in the 1970’s .
