I Just Need You For Tonight
Recorded by Billy Crash Craddock
Written by Jerry Wallace, Terry Skinner, Ken Bell
 
G
Oh she looked just like an angel  
    C                            G
But I could see the devil in her eyes
 
And before I knew what hit me
      C                           G
I was sittin' at her table buying drinks
    D7      G
And tellin' lies

 
When I said I had my freedom
                                         C   G Am
She sit back and slowly pushed her drink away
    D7
And when she turned to face me
                            G
This is all the lady had to say
 
                                 
I don't want your love forever 
       Am
I just need you for tonight
        D7
I don't want someone to hold me down
     G
Just hold me good and tight

                                    
I don't need an obligation 
          Am
Change of love don't work out right
        D7
I don't want your love forever
                    C     G
I just need you for tonight
 
 
Well I said I hear you talking
  C                                 G
Believe me I've been down that road before
 
And I said I understand
      C                               G
And I reached into my pockets for the keys
    D7             G
And headed for the door
 

And as the sunlight cast its shadows
                                            C
On the pillow where last night she laid her head
   Dm
So much for wishful thinking
                  D7                  G
I guess that lady meant just what she said
  
Repeat #3,4
