I'm lifting this straight out of Springsteen Complete...sounds much
better on piano/keyboard than solo guitar IMO, but here it is
anyway...all chords are either open (D,G,A,C) or barres near the nut
(F#,Bm).
Intro: Bm, G, A, Bm, G, A, Bm
Bm G A Bm
Verse: Take me now, baby, here as I am.
G A BmPull me close try and understand.
G A BmDesire is hunger, is the fire I breathe.
G A BmLove is a banquet on which we feed.
G A D ACome on now, try and understand
Bm G Athe way I feel when I'm in your hand.
D G ATake my hand; come under cover.
C Bm F#They can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now.
Bm G A
Chorus: Because the night belongs to lovers.
Bm G A BmBecause the night belongs to lust.
G ABecause the night belongs to lovers.
Bm G A BmBecause the night belongs to us.
Second verse: Have I doubt when I'm alone?
Love is a ring on the telephone.
Love is an angel disguised as lust,
here in our bed until the morning comes.
Come on now, try and understand
the way I feel under your command.
Take my hand as the sun descends.
They can't touch you now, can't touch you now, can't touch you now.
Repeat chorus
D A D A Bm AEnding: With love we sleep; with doubt the viscious circle turn and turns.
D A Bm A D AWithout you I cannot live, forgive the yearning, burning
G D GI believe in time, too real to feel,
Bm D G F#so touch me now, touch me now, touch me now.
Repeat chorus and fade.
