Frente! - "Not Given Lightly" (from the EP "Labour Of Love")
I think this is a cover tune, but it is so lovely they could
have written it themselves. It is very beautiful.
A# G
Hello my friend
D# F
It's morning, time to wake now
A# G
In body in mind
D# F
In twined will have to break now
A# G
But I need your flesh
D# F
Your warmth to stay beside me
A# G D#
Oh how I wish you could be
F
Deep inside me
A# G
Show me your eyes
D# F
Your low most tender feelings
A# G
And I'll give you mine
D# F
Be truthful and revealing
A#
And it's you that I love
Ab
And it's true that I love
D# F
And it's love not given lightly
A#
But I knew that it's love
Ab
And it's you that I love
D# F
And it's more than what it might be
D --3----|
A ----3--|
A# G
When we're alone
D# F
I cannot always face you
A# G
Maybe my mood
D# F
Will let these arms embrace you
A# G
But that doesn't mean
D# F
My love's somewhat diminished
A# G
Give me the time
D# F
To show our love's unfinished
(repeat chorus)
C D# F
And every word I say is true
A# G
What can I say
D# F
The words destroy all meanings
A# G
There's only cliches
D# F
To get across this feeling
low D -8\-- A -1-1-1-1---|
F --0-0-0-0--|
A# G
This is a love song
D# F
For John and Desha's mother
A# G
This isn't easy
D# F
I might not write another
(repeat chorus x2)
