Temptation Road Feat Tim Bragg
A new version of a song originally recorded by my own band back in 2014. I much prefer this slower version, with a slightly Latino feel in places.
Voting member of the U.S. Songwriter's Hall of Fame. Co-writes with many others including Suzi Quatro.
Story behind the song
A little trip down Temptation Road, we've all been there :)
Lyrics
TEMPTATION ROAD (R Hemsworth © 07-11-2012)
Em C
GOD DAMN, MY SENSES ARE ON FIRE
D Em
IT’S LIKE MY LOVIN’ IS HANGING ON A WIRE
C
I’M ACTING FOOLISH BUT I JUST DON’T CARE
D Em
I’M IN THE MOOD TO TAKE SOME KIND OF DARE
C
IT’S STRANGE BUT I WANNA TAKE SOME CHANCES
D Em
I GET THIS WAY, EVERY TIME SHE DANCIES
C
SHE’S GOT THE MOVES THAT SET MY WORLD ALIGHT
D Em
I CAN REALLY FEEL THE PASSION TONIGHT
Chorus
C D
LIGHT THE BLUE TOUCHPAPER AND STAND WELL CLEAR
C D
‘CAUSE BABY WHEN YOU TOUCH ME THE FIREWORKS APPEAR
Em C
JUST LIKE DYNAMITE MY INSIDES EXPLODE
D (stop) Em
WHEN YOU TAKE ME DRIVIN’ DOWN TEMPTATION ROAD
Em C
YOU’D THINK I’VE NOT A CARE IN MY LIFE
D Em
BUT HER LOVIN’ CUTS THROUGH ME LIKE A KNIFE
C
I’M FILLED WITH LUST BUT I JUST DON’T CARE
D Em
IN LOVE AND HATE, EVERYTHING’S FAIR
C
SO TONIGHT I’M GONNA HAVE A BALL
D Em
I’M JUST WAITING FOR THAT GIRL TO CALL
C
VERY SOON SHE’LL BE KNOCKING AT MY DOOR
D Em
A WHILE LATER SHE’LL BE SCREAMING FOR MORE!
