E A E A E A E A ~ ~ E A E A
[Verse 1]
E
With your glass in my hand
F#m7 C#m/F#
And the firelight flickering in the embers
B
And a tune in my head
E Eadd9 C A ~ ~ E
Some words on my lips, unremembered
[Verse 2]
C# vision of beauty
F#m7 C#m/F#
C# picture of paradise bleeding
B
It's your warm tender touch
E Eadd9 C A ~
It's your lips, it's your looks that I'm needing
[Verse 3]
~ E
Well, I talk to myself
F#m7 C#m/F#
Write nonsensical words, without meaning
B
And the meter's all wrong
E Eadd9 C A ~
And the song's got a dangerous feeling
[Verse 4]
~ E
You're a doctor of love
F#m7 C#m/F#
And I'm in need of some inspired medication
B
So come to me now
E Eadd9 C
Let me benefit from your consultation
[Chorus]
F#m7 B
Oh, treat me kindly

My heart's been through World War Three
F#m7 B
Loving you blindly
E Eadd9 C A ~ ~ E A E A
That's where I wanna be
[Verse 5]
E
With each day you're awake
F#m7 C#m/F#
You're advised to take your stake to the limit
B
While the rich get richer
E Eadd9 C A ~
And the poor get poorer by the minute
[Verse 6]
~ E
Well, me I'm confused
F#m7 C#m/F#
I'm not used to these selfish persuasions

It's your warm tender touch

It's your lips, it's your looks that I'm craving
[Chorus]
F#m7 B
Oh, treat me kindly

That's where I wanna be
[Verse 7]
E
And with each day that goes by
F#m7 C#m/F#
I find myself asking, why so much sadness
B
So much misery and pain
E Eadd9 C
Fingers pointed in blame, so much madness
[Verse 8]
With you by my side
F#m7 C#m/F#
My head's held up in pride, my heart's healing
B
It's your warm tender touch
E Eadd9 C
It's your lips, it's your looks that I'm feeling

My heart's been through World War Three

Loving you blindly

That's where I wanna be
