I don’t want to fight
it's true, I don't... but on this one the guitar part came before the words.
a rather jazzy song with syncopated rhythm
words and music by Martin Stirrup 2016
Emaj7 Am7
Didn’t mean no sleight
Emaj7 Am7
Just want to do things right
C#m7 F#
You know I need to see the light
C#m7 B9 B7
I don’t want to fight
Emaj7 Am7
I’m just pointing out who is who
Emaj7 Am7
Sticking to my point of view
C#m7 F#
Don’t get so uptight
C#m7 B9 B7 Emaj7 (into the riff)
I don’t want to fight with you
we might disagree on … one two or three things but
It shouldn’t take all night for us to put it right
So what’s it to you… If it takes a glass or two
Don’t get so uptight I don’t want to fight with you
Dmaj7 D6 E Cmaj7 C6 E
It may come easy but it may come hard
A E D A
When we start laying out our troubles by the yard
Dmaj7 D6 E Cmaj7 C6 E
It may be simple or it may be tough
A E B7
Don’t you think we’re old enough to take the smooth with the rough
Come over to me here Don’t let love disappear
You just took a fright Don’t let it last the night
What else can we do just let it all wash through
Gonna make it right I don’t want to fight with you
