[Intro]
Am7  Fm7  Dm7 E7 Am7
[Verse 1]
Looking out the corner of her Fm7eye
 Dm7As she sits aE7lone and drinks her Bb7wiiii-Am7ine
Every man just wants to pass her Fm7by
 Dm7In hopes that E7he can catch her Am7eye
That glow that’s in her Fmeye
Gives you Dm7visions in your E7mind
She’s from Bbanother space and time
That’s when you’ll Am7know you’re hypnoFmtized
Her inDm7toxicating E7will not be deAm7nied
[Pre-Chorus]
 Fm9And when you touch her glove
 Dm7She then becomes your drug
 Fm7You fall so deep in love with the Dm7girlE  
[Chorus]
Am9It’s too late, you’re hypnotized
Fm7She’s got Dorothy Dandridge eyes
And you Dm7love her, you E7love her, you Gmlove her, you Bbm7love that girl
Am9It’s too late, you’re hypnotized

And you Dm7love her, you E7love that Am7girl
[Verse 2]
Like a rare Picasso or MFm7onet
 Dm7The kind of beauty E7studied every Bb7daaa-Am7ay
 Am7Every woman wants her grace and Fm7style
 Dm7But no one can E7replicate her Am7smile
That glow that’s in her Fm7eyes
Gives you Dm7visions in your E7mind
She’s from Bbanother space and time
That’s when you’ll Am7know you’re hypnoFmtized
Her inDm7toxicating E7will not be deAm7nied
[Pre-Chorus]
 Fm9And when you touch her glove
 Dm7She then becomes your drug
 Fm7You fall so deep in love, that Dm7girlE  
[Chorus]

The blue shine of black metal
Red rose petals falling slowly Bbm7through the sunny air
Orange Gbm7clouds, pink moons on the Fm7tongue of the sun
Who knew Bbm7heaven could kiss just like this?
