>From the first album. This is similar to the chords in the existing (Lothar
Steidle/Ronald Gelten) posting but I've tabbed it out.
[Intro & verse] :

             tonight I feel so weak
             but all in love is fair
             i turn the other cheek -$
   A                 A(stop)
    and i feel the slap and the sting of the foul night air

    and i know you're only human   and i haven't got talking room

    but tonight while I'm making excuses,

       some other woman is making love to you
[chorus]:

     somebody          bring me some water,
     can't you see i'm burning alive
     can't you see my baby's got another lover

  and i don't know how i'm gonna survive
    A                 G              D         Dsus4    D
    somebody          bring me some water,
    can't you see its out of control
    baby's got my heart and my baby's got my mind
        E
but tonight the sweet devil's, sweet devil's got my . .

   . . soul
[picking same as verse 1]:
A
when will this aching pass
when will this night be through
i wanna hear the breaking glass ($) but I only
  A
feel the steel of the red hot truth
    Ds9
and I'd do anything to get it out of my mind
                              A
i need some insanity of that temporary kind
 D
tell me how will I ever be the same
  E
when I know that that woman is whispering your name

* Don't PLAY the c at the first fret on the b string, but it's helpful to
anchor your index finger there
$ - don't play 'D Dx' on the third line of the verse
+ on the very last note of the song, bend the g upto an a by pushing down the
g string BEHIND the nut (but don't expect to be in tune afterwards),
alternatively, just hammer on to the second fret on the g string
