HEATWAVE chromatic

Martha and the Vandellas
Key: D

 -4  -4 -3 -4   -3  -4
When-ev-er I'm with you 
-2*   -3   -4 -3-2*  -4   -3  -3  -4
Some-thing in-side starts to burn-ing 
-2* -3    -4    -3  -4 -3-2*
and I’m filled with de-sire 
  -5  -4 -5 -5 -6* -6* 6 -6*
could it be a  dev-il in me
-5 -5   7  -5   7    7    -5   -8   -7 -7
or is this the way love’s sup-posed to be
 -4   -5 -4  -5   -5   -6* -4  -5 -5 -56-6*
It's like a heat-wave burn-ing in my heart 
-5  -8   -7   -7  -8  -8
I can't keep from cry-ing 
 -3   -4  -3  -5 6  -5
It’s tear-ing me a-part 

Whenever he calls my name 
Sounds so soft sweet and plain 
Right then, right there 
I feel this burning pain 
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me 
I said this ain't the way love's supposed to be 

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart 
I can't keep from crying 
Tearing me apart 

Whenever I'm with you 
Something inside starts burning 
And my hearts filled with fire 

Something's got me amazed 
Don't know what to do 
My head's in a haze 

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart 
I can't keep from crying 
Tearing me apart
