Verse 1
G
C
I was
G
C
in
Detroit,
G
Michigan not too long ago,
Bb
C
visiting with some friends of mine.
I checked in at the 20
Grand
Motel where I always stay
G
and hang out with the brothers.
C
As I checked in and put my bags down,
G
I could hear this strange conversation coming from
next door.
And it seems like this young lady had gotten into
this gentleman's room and really didn't
C
know how she got there.
Or at least that's what she
G
was trying to run down on him.
C
It seems like she had had too many martinis
G
and she was trying to beg the man off.
And of course, you know, I was going to
C
listen and see how it was going to come out.
I miss some of the conversation,
G
but the way I came in was when she was saying to him some
words, something like this,
let me tell you a story.
She said to him, she said.
If you said I said it, then I guess I said it.
Bb
C
G
But you had me under your power of love
I walked in the club,
and mister there you were
Bb
C
Under your power of love
G
You were at the bar,
looking like a movie star
Bb
C
Under your power of love
G
You begged for me, and I came to see
Bb
C
G
You had me under your power of love
And when you stood, oh
Lord, you showed it no good
Bb
C
Under your power of love
G
We had a drink,
and I couldn't think, no
Bb
C
Under your power of love
G
You said you'd be back in a flash, yeah
Bb
C
G
C
I was under your power of love
G
C
Yeah, women can get themselves in some strange situations sometimes,
and it comes right down
G
to the real nitty -gritty.
Em
C
They want to renege on the deal.
But I kept on listening, because I wanted to see
G
how it was going to come out, you know?
C
And as she was crying, trying to put a wrap down to him,
G
C
she kept on pleading in some
G
words, just like this, let me tell a story.
This is just how it went.
She said to him, she said, listen,
you went and rented a room and pretty soon you had
Bb
C
And your power of love
G
Then you start squeezing me
And teasing me
Bb
C
G
And I was under your power of love
You tried your best
To unzip my dress, yeah
Bb
C
G
I was un der your power of love
I told you no
And let me go, yeah
Bb
C
I was under your power of love
G
You said, I don't give a damn
Please call me again
Bb
C
I'm under your power,
G
If you let me go
Mister, this won't happen no more
Bb
C
I'm under your power,
Lord
G
I'm going home to my man
Fast as I can, yeah
Bb
C
I'm under your power,

Under your power,

And let me go, yeah
Bb
