C#m Guitar intro approximation:
"Dressed only in clothes e -----------------9----------
from her head to her toes. B ------------9--------7-5-7~9
This is the way G -------9--------------------
the talking part goes." D -11-11---11---11------------
A ----------------------------
E ----------------------------
repeat and vary ending,
Main riff:
e ---------------------
B ---------------------
G -----4---------------
D -------3-4-4---3-4---
A -2-----------------2-
E ---------------------
S-E-X-X-Y
More than enough
C# D
Around the clock with nobody else
S-E-X-X-Y
There she is
Standing on the bed
Cookie in one hand, wig on her head
S-E-X-X-Y
C# D
X because it's extra baby
C# D
Y because it's extra baby
C# D
Unnoticed by few, very very few
And that includes you
e -----------------
B -----------------
G -----------------
D -------------4-3- [back to main riff]
A -----1-1-4-4-----
E -2-2-------------
[in this next verse, preface the riff with
a walk up on the A string - A -0-1-1-]
Look inside your mind
Look inside your eye
Secret agent spy, come to see why
D#
S-E-X-X-Y
[guitar solo is insane and in D#!
bass/liveflans plays this in the background:
e ---------------------
B ---------------------
G ---------------------
D ---------------------
A -6-6---6-4---------4-
E -----------6-6---6--- x4
then the song drops to C#, so the riff does too:
e ---------------------
B ---------------------
G ---------------------
D ---------------------
A -4-4---4-2---------2-
E -----------4-4---4--- x4 ]
One finger nail
Across your back
Baby's first gold tooth initials inscribed
S-E-X-X-Y
X because it's extra baby
Y because it's extra baby
You gotta understand
She wants to be your man
She's got another plan
