Fill me in
Anyone ever had the courage to find out what lovely guitar parts
are with this song (besides thefact that Craig has the best male vocals I
ever heard)??? I would say: It’s the cream (the guitar part) that completes the
cake (Craig’s vocals).
Here’s the secret:
1. Put a Capo on the third fret (for da real freaks: NO capo at all ;-P )
2. Here’s another fingerpicking lesson (not for the faint of hearted)
3. I strongly recommend practicing this at slow pace then slowly increase speed
Have fun!!!

Lyrics:
Craig David – Seven Days
On my way to see my friends
who lived a couple blocks away from me (owh)
As I walked through the subway
it must have been about quarter past three
In front of me
stood a beautiful honey with a beautiful body
She asked me for the time
I said it’d cost her her name
a six digit number & a date with me tomorrow at nine
Did she decline? No
Didn’t she mind? I don’t think so
Was it for real? Damn sure
What was the deal? A pretty girl aged 24
So was she keen? She couldn’t wait
Cinnamon queen? let me update
What did she say? She said she’d love to
rendezvous
She asked me what we were gonna do
said we’d start with a bottle of moet for two
Chorus
Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
Verse 2
Nine was the time
cos I’ll be getting mine
and she was looking fine
Smooth talker
she told me
She’d love to unfold me all night long
Ooh I loved the way she kicked it
from the front to back she flipped (back she flipped it, ooh the
way she
kicked it)
And I oh oh I yeah
hope that she’d care
cos I’m a man who’ll always be there
Ooh yeah
I’m not a man to play around baby
Ooh yeah
cos a one night stand isn’t really fair
>From the first impression girl hmm you don’t seem to be like that
Cos there’s no need to chat for there’ll be plenty for that
>From the subway to my home
endless ringing of my phone
When you feeling all alone
all you gotta do
is just call me call me
Chorus
Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
Bridge
(Break it down, uh break it down)
Since I met this special lady
ooh yeah
I can’t get her of my mind
She’s one of a kind
And I ain’t about to deny it
It’s a special kind thing
with you-oh…….
Chorus
Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
took her for a drink on Tuesday
we were making love by Wednesday
and on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday

Craig David – Fill Me In
(All right)
(Come on)
(Can you fill me in)
I was checking this girl next door
When her parents went out
She phoned said hey boy, come on right around
So I knock at the door
You was standing with a bottle of red wine
Ready to pour
Dressed in all that Satin and Lace to the floor
So I went in
Then we sat down start kissing
Caressing
Told me about Jacuzzi
Sounded interesting
So we jumped right in
All calls diverted to answerphone
Please leave a message after the tone
I’m not being mean
Her Parents were kinda cool
But they ran a fine line between me and you
We were just doing things young people end up doing
Parents trying to find out what we were up to
Saying why were you creeping round late last night
Why did I see two shadows moving in your bedroom light
Now you’re dressed in black
When I left you were dressed in white
Can you fill me in
Calls diverted to answerphone
Red wine bottle half the contents gone
Midnight return Jacuzzi turned on
Can you fill me in
Whenever the coast was clear and she’d ask me to come out
I’d say hey girl, come on right around
So she knocked at the door
I was standing with the keys in my hand to the 4×4
Jumped in my ride
Chucked in where nobody saw
The club we went in
We got down down down to the rhythm
Saw it was early morning
Thought we’d better be leaving
So I gave you my jacket for you to hold
Told you to wear it coz you felt cold
I’m not being mean
I didn’t mean to break the rules
I weren’t trying to play your Mum and Dad for fools
We were just doing things young people end up doing
Parents trying to find out what we were up to
Saying why can’t you keep your promises no more
Say you’ll be home by 12 come strolling in at 4
Out went the girls but leaving with the boy next door
Can you fill me in
Wearing a jacket who’s property
Said you’d been queuing for a Taxi
But you left all your money on the TV
Can you fill me in
(Can you fill me in)
All they seem to do
Is be checking up on you
Baby
(Craig David)
Watching our every move
Think some day they might approve
Baby
Why were you creeping round late last night
Why did I see two shadows moving in your bedroom light
Now you’re dressed in black
When I left you were dressed in white
Can you fill me in
(Can you fill me in)
Calls diverted to answerphone
Red wine bottle half the contents gone
Midnight return Jacuzzi turned on
Can you fill me in
(Can you fill me in)..
