John Hiatt

Biography:

John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

Chords:

Verse:
Em D Em D
Sometimes I don’t even move a muscle
Em D Em D
Baby when you lie awake at night
Em D Em D
I think I’ve got nine lives in these corpuscles
Em D Em D
Cause girl, you know sometimes I don’t think right

Pre-Chorus:
A G
I hear voices in the hall
A
I wake up and it’s nothing at all
G
A hungry wolf, or an agry child

Chorus:
Em D
Or something wild
Em D
Something wild
Em D
Something wild - tell me love is
Em D
Something wild - tell me love is

Verse:
It’s not as if we could think that things were one way
And they would all just be that way right now
When I was a kid I thought that someday
I could tame this lion heart, some way, somehow

Pre-Chorus:
Now I’m hungry for the love
That doesn’t know what it’s dreamin’ of
Raging for the meek and mild

Chorus:
Like something wild
Something wild
Something wild - tell me love is
Em D A
Something wild - tell me love is

Bridge:
A G
There’s a hole where the wind blows through
A
And some curtains hung
G
But I can’t hid a thing from you
B
You know where I come from

(Solo 4 bars)

Final Verse: (Lead only, no Rhythm)

Well I tried getting there under my own steam
’til my very last chance was shot
Now you’re under my skin like a submarine
I can feel you in my veins running hot
Now if it’s more than a new pair of jeans, a new car, some pocket money
And a place to go
Then we better get up and scream at the top of our lungs like it
Was gonna die if we didn’t make it so

Pre-Chorus:
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it’s nothing at all
An angry wolf, or a hungry child

Chorus:
Or something wild
Something wild
Something wild - tell me love is
Something wild - tell me love is

Outro:
Em D
Something wild
Em D
Something wild
Em D
Something wild

Enjoy!
