Leather and Lace

Is love so fragile?

(Ab)And the hearts so (Eb)hollow

(Ab)shatter with (Eb)words (Bb7sus)impossible to follow.

(Eb)You're sayin' I'm fragile.

(Ab)I try not to (Eb)be.

I search (Ab)only for somethin' I can't (Bb7sus)see.

(Eb)I have my own life,

(Ab)and I am (Eb)stronger than you (Ab)know.

(Eb)But I carry this feelin' (Ab)when you walked (Eb)into my house

(Ab)that you won't be (Eb)walkin' out the door.

(Eb)Still I carry this feelin' (Ab)when you walked (Eb)into my house

(Ab)that you won't be (Eb)walkin' out the door.

(Ab)Lovers forever,

face to face,

my city or (Bb)mountains.

(Ab)Stay with me, (Bb)stay.

(Ab)I need you to love me.

I need you today.

Give to me your (Bb)leather.

Take (Ab)from me my (Bb7sus)lace.

(Eb)You in the moonlight

(Ab)with your (Eb)sleepy eyes,

(Ab)could you ever (Eb)love a man like (Bb7sus)me?

(Eb)And you were right:

(Ab)when I walked (Eb)into your house,

(Ab)I knew I'd (Eb)never want to leave.

(Eb)Sometimes I'm a strong man,

(Ab)sometimes cold and scared, and sometimes I cry.

(Eb)But that time I saw you,

I (Ab)knew with you to light my nights,

(Eb)somehow I'd get (Bb7sus)by.

lace. Take (Ab)from me

(Eb)my (Bb7sus)lace.

Take (Ab)from me

(Eb)my (Bb7sus)lace.

Take lace.
