A
Blood red lips like soft intentions
 D
Kiss my eyes - they're black and blue
A
Even if I shouldn't be here
   D
I cannot help myself with you

There's something that I should have told you
We won't get a second chance
Just one night is all we'll spend
Together and it's killing me, she.

Chorus:
E
She rescues me, she rescues me,
     D               E
she rescues me, she rescues me
She rescues me, she rescues me,
she rescues me, she rescues me
She rescues me, she rescues me,
she rescues me, she rescues me
She rescues me, she rescues me,
she rescues me, she ree-ee-ee.
