C      G/C     Am/C     Fadd9/G 
C      G/C     Am/C     Fadd9/G 
  
C        G/C    Am/C 
There's a tenderness that I feel, 
    Fadd9/G        G 
 Very real, you see 
     C        G/C  Am/G    Fadd9/G 
I can feel your body stir, so deep within 
     Em7         C         F        Am   Dm7 
Let it be an act of love tonight, completely 
    G          Fadd9/G     C 
Let me ask of you one thing 
  
 Fadd9/G   G     C     Fadd9/G 
 Don't close your eyes tonight 
          C/E        Am   G       F   F/G  C 
 Just look at me,  see how many times I've cried for you 
     Fadd9/G     G       C   Dm7 
 Don't close your eyes tonight 
         G  G/F  Em7              Am     G  F 
 Let it be me,         not just a fantasy 
         G   C     
 Let it be me tonight 
  
C    G/C     Am/G 
You can lie so close to someone 
          Fadd9/G       G 
And still feel all alone 
        C        G/C 
Though I've heard you say 
 Am/G   C    Fadd9/G 
You love me so many times 
     Em7      
When you give me love 
    C       F             Am  C/E  Dm7 
 So beautiful,       and tender 
    G            Fadd9/G    C 
Someone else is in your mind 
  
 Fadd9/G   G      C    Fadd9/G 
 Don't close your eyes tonight 
           C/E        Am  G       F   F/G  C 
 Just look at me,  see how many times I've cried for you 
      Fadd9/G    G      C     Dm7 
 Don't close your eyes tonight 
        G  G/F  Em7               Am    G  F 
 Let it be me,         not just a fantasy 
        G    C     
 Let it be me tonight 
  
Dm7             C/E 
 Sorry if I cry- feelings run so deep 
   F 
 Many is the time when I wake up and find 
      Am             G 
 I've been crying in my sleep 
 Dm7 
 Look me in the eye, 
  C/E 
 Tell me what you see 
 F 
 I'm the one who loves you 
   
 I'm the one who needs you 
 Am             A  D 
 Make this one for me 
  
Gadd9/A    A      D 
Don't close your eyes tonight 
Gadd9/A          D/F#        Bm   A        G   G/A    D 
 Just look at me,    see how many times I've cried for you 
    Gadd9/A           A       D     Em7 
 Don't close       your eyes tonight 
        A   A/G   F#m7               Bm       A    G 
 Let it be me,            not just a fantasy
