I am the genie of your lamp, yeah, that’s my name
            D             Dmaj                     Bm
And there’s a lamp, it’s made of skin it looks the same
 E                    D             C#m             Bm
When you touch me once or twice, your wish is my command

Don’t ever free me, don’t make me go

I’ll be your genie forever more


I go accustomed to the feeling of my skin
I’m not grown to like it livin’  here within
Knowing that you’ll come along and rub me every day
When you do I know that all my blues will go away

I am the genie of your lamp
I am your genie, I am your lamp
Don’t ever free me, don’t make me go
I’ll be your genie forever more


Instr.

I am the genie of your lamp
I am your genie, I am your lamp
Don’t ever free me, don’t make me go
I’ll be your genie forever more
