Patti Smith: Because the Night
==============================

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

   G       A            D    A
R: Come on now, try and understand 
       Hmi   G                     A
   the way I feel when I'm in your hand 
   D       G                A
   Take my hand; come under cover 
   C
   They can't hurt you now, 
   Hmi
   can't hurt you now,
   F#
   can't hurt you now
   
   Hmi         G                A
   Because the night belongs to lovers 
   Because the night belongs to lust 
   Because the night belongs to lovers 
   Because the night belongs to us 
   

2. 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 R: 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 
   
   Because the night belongs to lovers...
   

        D       A          D         A
3. With love we sleep with doubt the viscious circle 
   Hmi      A         D   A
   turn and turns without you I cannot
   Hmi     A        D         A
   live forgive the yearning, burning
       G        D         G
   I believe in time, too real to feel,
      Hmi
   so touch me now, 
   D
   touch me now,
   G            F#
   touch me now 
   

R: Because the night belongs to lovers...
