The Sensual World Kate Bush
Capo on 1st fret
(Aside: I tried as much as I could to depict the relationship between the rhythm
of the lyrics and the chords. It is intricate so if there are any mistakes it is
only in when you should play the chords, the chords themselves are almost
certainly correct! However, this is my first tablature so excuse any errors!)

VERSE 1:
[E]Mmh, yes,
[D6add9]Then I'd taken the [Cmaj7]kiss of seedcake [D6add9]back from his mouth[E]
Going deep South, g[D6add9]o down, [Cmaj7]mmh, y[D6add9]es,[E]
Took six big wheels and [D6add9]rolled our bodies
Off [Cmaj7]of Howth Head and [D6add9]into the flesh, mmh, yes,
[Am]He said I was a flower of the [D6add9]mountain, yes,
[Am]But now I've powers o'er a wom[D6add9]an's body, [E]yes.
Chorus:
Stepping [D]ou[G6]t of the [A]page into the [E]sensual world.
Stepping [D]ou[G6]t...[A] [E]
Verse2:
To where [D6add9]the water and the [Cmaj7]earth caress
And the [D6add9]down of a peach [E]says mmh, yes,
Do I [D6add9]look for those m[Cmaj7]illionaires
Like a [D6add9]Machiavellian [E]girl would
When I could [D6add9]wear...[Cmaj7]... a [D6add9]sunset? [E]mmh, yes,
[Am]And how we'd wished to [D6add9]live in the sensual world
[Am]You don't need words--j[D6add9]ust one kiss, then another[E].
CHORUS:
Stepping [D]ou[G6]t o[A]f the page into the [E]sensual world
Stepping [D]ou[G6]t, [A]off the page, into t[E]he sensual world.
BREAK: E D A D A Eadd9 D E
VERSE 3:
And then our [D6add9]arrows of [Cmaj7]desire rewrite the speech,[D6add9] mmh, yes,[E]
And then he whispered would I[D6add9], mmh, [Cmaj7]yes,[D6add9]
[E]Be safe, mmh, yes, f[D6add9]rom moun[Cmaj7]tain f[D6add9]lowers?[E]
And at first with the charm around hi[D6add9]m, mmh,[Cmaj7] yes,[D6add9]
[E]He loosened it [Am]so if i[D6add9]t slipped between my [Am]breasts
[D6add9]He'd rescue it, mmh, yes[E],
And his spark took life in my [D6add9]hand...[Cmaj7]..... [D6add9]and... [E]mmh, yes,
[D6add9]I said, [Cmaj7]mmh, y[D6add9]es,
[E]But not yet, [D6add9]mmh, ye[Cmaj7]s,[D6add9] [E]
[D6add9]Mmh, ye[Cmaj7]s. [D6add9]
