[Verse 1]
B
Baby's got a lot of tears
B
Enough to cry a thousand years
Em
Enough to cry a thousand seas
B
Enough to break a boy like me
F#
I want to stand and deliver
B
And be the one that makes it better
[Verse 2]
B
All I've got's this little heart
B
With growing pains and leaky parts
Em
All I've got's this little cup
B
I pour it out, she fills it up
F#
It tastes so sweet and so bitter
B
Why can't I just deliver?
[Chorus]
G#m F# B
Stand and deliver (stand, stand)
G#m F#
Stand and deliver
[Bridge]
B
In the time that we're apart
G#m F#
I figured out what makes it hard
B
All the words they go away
G#m F#
I can't face another day
B
Without the one who breaks my heart
G#m F#
And gets to touch the tender parts
[Verse 3]
B
Baby's got a lot of love
B
Enough to fill the sky above
Em
Enough to make the sunlight shine
B
Enough to leave it all behind
F#
I want to shine, I want to shimmer
B
Receive the love that makes it better
[Chorus]
G#m F# B
Stand and deliver (stand, stand)
G#m F#
Stand and deliver
[Verse 4]
B
But all I've got's this little chalice
B
Born of fear and forged with malice
Em
All I've got's this coat of mail
B
In its time it served me well
F#
It's useless now as I wither
B
Why can't I just deliver?
[Chorus]
G#m F# B
Stand and deliver (stand, stand)
G#m F#
Stand and deliver
[Bridge]
B
In the time that we're apart
G#m F#
I figured out what makes it hard
B
All the words they go away
G#m F#
I can't face another day
B
Without the one who breaks my heart
G#m F#
And gets to touch the tender parts
G#m F#
Stand and deliver
