Take Me - George Jones
View chords used in this chart
E
Take me, take me to your darkest room
E7
Close every window and bolt every door
A E F#
The very first moment I heard your voice
B7 E
I'd be in darkness no more
 
Take me to your most barren desert
E
A thousand miles from the nearest sea
A E F#
The very moment I saw your smile
B7 E
It would be like heaven to me
 
B7
There's not any mountain to rugged to climb
F# B7
No desert too barren to cross
 
Darlin', if you would just show a sign
F# B7
Of love, I could bear with all loss
 
E
Take me to Siberia
 
And the coldest weather of the winter time
A E F#
And it would be just like spring in California
B7 E
As long as I knew you were mine
 
A E F#
Yes, it would be just like spring in California
B7 E
As long as I knew you were mine
 
Take me, take me
