Venus

Words & Music:

Shocking Blue

B7sus4 Em A Em A [2x]

Em A Em A

A goddess on a mountain top

Em A Em A

Burning like a silver flame,

Em A Em A

Summit of beauty and love,

Em A Em [single note riff: E G A B B A G]

And Venus was her name.

Am D Am D Em A Em A

She's got it--! Yeah, baby, she's got it!

C7 B7 Em A Em A

I'm your Venus, I'm your fire at your desire.

INSTRUMENTAL OVER: Em A

Her weapons are her crystal eyes making every man mad.

Black as the dark night she was, got what no one else had.

She's got it! Yeah, baby, she's got it!

I'm your Venus, I'm your fire at your desire.

Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire at your desire.
