Because The Night - Patti Smith Version

[intro]
[Am] (F) (G) (Am) x2

Am      F        G         Am
Take me now baby here as I am
        F              G    Am
Pull me close, try and understand
          F              G      Am
Desire is hunger, is the fire I breathe
          F          G        Am
Love is a banquet on which we feed.

C       G           C    G
Come on now, try to understand
    Am    G             Am      G
The way I feel when I’m in your hand
C       G          C     G
Take my hand, come under cover
     Bb                  Am
They can’t hurt you now, can’t hurt you now
E7       
Can’t hurt you now…

Am     F          G   Am
Have I doubt when I’m alone
          F           G   Am
Love is a ring on the telephone 
           F        G         Am
Love is an angel disguised as lust
            F            G       Am
Here in our bed till the morning comes

C       G           C    G
Come on now try and understand
    Am    G          Am      G
The way I feel under your command
C       G            C     G
Take my hand, as the sun descends
     Bb                    Am
They can’t touch  you now, can’t touch you now
E7
Can’t touch you now…

[Chorus]

C       G          
With love we sleep, 
     C         G              Am        F
With doubt the vicious circle turns and turns
   C           G      Am
Without you, I cannot live
   F        C        G
Forgive the yearning burning
    Am       F        C       G
I believe in time too real to feel.
   Am            C        
So touch me now, touch me now
F        E7
Touch me now….

[Chorus] x2
