Intro 1
(D major) (D minor) (C major) (D minor) (D major)
Verse 1
I was amazed when I first saw (D minor)
Grace Jones (F major) (C major) (D major)
She was the first to take radical fashion out of
its predictable Parisian context
And bring it (D minor) into the music scene,
where I had always thought it be (C major) longed (D major)
The first night watching her in La Mouche,
I had already decided to work with her
That night, she was (D minor) singing her hit song "I (D major) Need a Man" to
a room full of shrieking gay (G major) (D major) (D minor) bobbysockses
The ambigu (F major) ity of her (C major) act was that she herself looked (D major) like a man—a man,
singing "I Need a Man" to a bunch of (D minor) men (D major) (D minor) (C major) (D major)
I could see how the average guy could get
a little scared by her physical appearance
It was so powerful, I thought she was,

Verse 2
I thought she was great
(D major)
I photographed her in different posi (F major) tions
(C major) I cut her leg (G major) s apart, (D major) (F sharp minor) lengthened them,
(D major) turned her body to face the audience
Soon, (D minor) I found my (D major) self living to the very fast
rhythm of Grace (D minor) Jones (D major) (D minor) (D major) (D minor) (G minor) (G major)
(C major) We would go out dancing,
(D major) all (D minor) night, every night
I was (D major) completely (C major) (A minor) neglecting
(C major) my (D minor) work (C major) (D major) (C major) (D minor)
An intense, hysterical (D major) ro (D minor) mance
developed between Grace and I (D major) (D minor)
(D major) But I ran out of money and realized I had to stop (D minor) all this
bullshit (C major) and go back to work (D major)
(D minor) (A minor) (C major) (D major)
Verse 3
I had this (A major) idea of (D major) using Grace (C major) as (E flat major) the
ideal (D minor) vehicle for my work (A major) (D major)
She had inspired me
On tour, we used to improvise, thinking of an idea (E flat major) (A major) at break (E flat minor) fast (C sharp major) and
(D major) working it out directly (F major) on stage (A major) (D major) (D major)
(F major) (G major) (A major) (G major) (D major)
I decided, deliberately,
to (D major) (C major) mythologize Grace Jones
Black, (D major) shiny, muscular people, (C sharp major) ahh,
(B major) (E flat minor) aerody (C sharp major) namic in design (B major) (F sharp minor) (A major)
'Twas to em (C sharp major) phas (D major) ize (G major) this belief (E minor) (F sharp minor) that I painted Grace Jones (D major) (F sharp minor) (E major) blue,
(F sharp minor) (E flat minor) black (D major)
Interlude 1
(C sharp major) (B major) (B flat major) (D major)
Verse 4
I am no (D major) longer sure what I fell in love with,
(D minor) Grace (E flat major) or my (D major) idea of what Grace should be
For the two years following the birth of our son,
(C major) (D major) there was nothing else in my life (F major) (D major) (G major) (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
Grace let me take her over completely (D minor)
(F major) (D minor)
Interlude 2
(D major) (A major) (D major) (D minor) (D major)
Verse 5
(Slave!) But then (D major)
I discovered (F major) (D major) that (E flat major) what I (D major) was mak (G major) ing
(D major) was speeding too far beyond what was there
By (D minor) the time (F major) our (D major) "One Man Show" (D minor) reached the US, (D major) I knew I'd lost her
