    SHUT UP AND KISS ME    Mary Chapin Carpenter


E  D  A  A    E  D  A  A    E  D  A  A    E  D  A  A

E               D            A       
  Don't mean to get a little forward with you
E               D            A         
  Don't mean to get ahead of where we are
E               D            A        
  Don't mean to act a little nervous around you
      E             D         A        
  I'm just a little nervous about my heart

D             E             A         
  It's been a while since I felt this feeling
D           E          A       
  That everything that you do gives me
D               E          A          
  It's been too long since somebody whispered
D      E   A            
  Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
E  D  A  A    E  D  A  A
[instrumental]

Didn't expect to be in this position

Didn't expect to have to rise above

My reputation for cynicism

I've been a jaded lady when it comes to love
 
But, oh baby, just to feel this feeling

That everything that you do gives me

It's been too long since somebody whispered

Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
 
B         B                   B       B
  There's something 'bout the silent type
D            E      A   A
  Attracting me to you
B     B               B            B 
  All business, baby, none of the hype
D         D          D       E   D   A   A     E  D  A  A    
  That no talker can live up too-ooo-ooo [guitar solo]

Come closer baby, I can't hear you

Just another whisper, if you please

Don't worry 'bout the details, darling

You've got the kind of mind I love to read
 
Talk is cheap and baby, time's expensive

So why wait another minute more

Life's too short to be so apprehensive

Love's as much the symptom, darling, as the cure
 
Oh, baby, when I feel this feeling

It's like the genuine voodoo hits me

It's been too long since somebody whispered

Wooooo, hooooo
 
Oh baby, I can feel this feeling

That everything that you do gives me

It's been too long since somebody whispered

Woooooo, shut up and kiss me

Wooooo, hooooo

Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
