I'm reposting this because I saw MCC in concert last week and discovered
a couple things about this song, most notably that she uses a capo at
the 5th fret. Besides, it's a big song right now. Oh, and I also added
some (very simple) tab for acoustic guitar at the end; nothing you
couldn't have figured out on your own.

SHUT UP AND KISS ME (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-------------------------------------------
[Each chord is half a measure.]
[The acoustic guitar is actually in E, with a capo on the 5th fret.
The electric is in A, no capo. These chords assume no capo.]

Don't mean to get a little forward with you
E D A A
Don't mean to get ahead of where we are
E D A A
Don't mean to act a little nervous around you
E D A A
I'm just a little nervous about my heart
D E A A
It's been a while since I felt this feeling
D E A A
That everything that you do gives me
D E A A
It's been too long since somebody whispered
D E A A
Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
E D A A E D A A
[instrumental]
Didn't expect to be in this position
Didn't expect to have to rise above
My reputation for cynicism
I've been a jaded lady when it comes to love
But, oh baby, just to feel this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
B B B B
There's something 'bout the silent type
D E A A
Attracting me to you

All business, baby, none of the hype

[piano solo]
Come closer baby, I can't hear you
Just another whisper, if you please
Don't worry 'bout the details, darling
You've got the kind of mind I love to read
Talk is cheap and baby, time's expensive
So why wait another minute more
Life's too short to be so apprehensive
Love's as much the symptom, darling, as the cure
Oh, baby, when I feel this feeling
It's like the genuine voodoo hits me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Wooooo, hooooo
Oh baby, I can feel this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been too long since somebody whispered
Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
Wooooo, hooooo
Woooooo, shut up and kiss me
