[Bm]
Your [Bm]precious love - that means so much
will it ever stop or will I just lose touch?
What I [G]want to say - but my [F#]words just fail
Is that I [Bm]need you so I can't help myself
Like a hungry child - I just help myself
G F# F#aug
And when I'm all full up - I got out to play
Aw![Bm] Huh!
Lonely [Bm]as the moors on a winter's morning
Quiet as the sea on a good calm night
In your [G]tranquil shadow - I [F#]try and follow
I hear your [Bm]distant shoe clicks
To the midnight beat -
I feel trapped in sorrow
In this imagery
G F# F#aug
But that's how I am and why I need you so
Aw![Bm] Huh!
[Bm]
F#7 F#7aug
[Em] But I don't mean to [D]bleed you dry
[Gm/Bb] Or take you over for the [D/A]rest of your life
[Bm] It's just that [A]I need something [G]solid in [F#]mine
Believe me baby!
You [Bm]precious love - it means so much
Will it ever stop or will I just lose touch?
What I [G]want to say but my [F#]words just fail
I hear your [Bm]distant shoe clicks
To the midnight beat
I'm feeling trapped in sorrow
In this imagery
But that's [G]how I am
F# F#aug
And why I need you so
Aw![Bm] Huh!
Bm (instrumental)
If the [Bm]sky fell from above
I said who's your precious love?
If the sky fell from above
I said who's your precious love?
If the sky fell from above
Buddy, who's your precious love?
[Bm]Huh!
