VERSE 1:
A
Steam....from a summer raindrop
D
Risin' off the blacktop
E                                        A
I wipe the sweat from my brow
A
Steam...from my radiator
D
I'm late and gettin' later
E                                            F#m
I should be at your place by now
F#m                    D
Bank sign says 102
F#m                                          E
But that ain't nothin' when I'm next to you
 
CHORUS:
A
There's fire in your fingertips
D
Flames in your touch
A
Desire in your burnin' lips
E
I can't get enough
A                                            D
Today was a scorcher but I know you want better
A                                    E   
Tonight when we get together
E                                A
We're gonna make steam
 
REPEAT INTRO
 
VERSE 2:
A
I dream of you there on the front steps
D
Sunnin' in that short dress
E                                A
Hotter than a Texas heat
A
Seems I'm never gonna get there
D
Traffic's goin' nowhere
E                                       F#m
But when I feel you next to me
F#m                                         D
Girl there are things that you know I do
F#m                                          E
That make my heat index go through the roof
 
REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO TO VERSE CHORDS then:
F#m                                         D
Girl there are things that you know I do
F#m                                          E
That make my heat index go through the roof
CHORUS
OUTRO: (same as intro , just a few bars longer)
