Bass Intro: F# D# E D# B A F# E F# E
Intro:
G G G# G# A A B B
B B B > Bb > A 4 times
B7
I've been on tender hooks, ending in dirty looks
Listening to the Muzak, thinking bout this n that
She said that's that, I don't wanna chitter chat
Turn it down a little bit or turn it down flat
E7
Pump it up!
when you don't really need it
Pump it up!
until you can feel it
B B B > Bb > A 4 times
B7
Down in the pleasure centre, hell bent or heaven sent
listen to the propaganda, listen to the latest slander
There's nothing under hand that she wouldn't understand
E7
Pump it up!
when you don't really need it
Pump it up!
until you can feel it
B B B > Bb > A 8 times, then land on A E7
Hang on with the drum beat 4 measures
HEY!!!
B B B > Bb > A 4 times
B7
She's been a bad girl. She's like a chemical
Though you try to stop it, she's like a narcotic
You wanna torture her, you wanna talk to her
All the things you bought for her, putting up your temperature
E7
Pump it up!
when you don't really need it
Pump it up!
until you can feel it
B B B > Bb > A 4 times
E7
Out in the fashion show, down in the bargain bin
you put your passion out under the pressure pin
B7
Fall into submission, hit-and-run transmission
No use wishing now for any other sin
E7
Pump it up!
when you don't really need it
Pump it up!
until you can feel it
Repeat B B B > Bb > A and refrain to fade
