[Verse 1]
A C#m D/F# Dm/F
Hush baby, don't cry, just try to remember
A C#m D Dm
the time when all your pitfalls and fears
F#m B D B
became mine and when we fall apart
F#m B D E E
just one thing takes me back to the start.
[Chorus]
D A Bm F#m
Tenderness, put my heart to rest,
D F#m E E
your tenderness hits me to the bone.
D A Bm F#m
Tenderness when my head's a mess,
D F#m E E
your tenderness keeps me coming home.
[Verse 2]
A C#m D/F# Dm/F
Hush baby, don't cry, this rings in my head
A C#m D Dm
all the time and still I tend to forget your words.
F#m B D B
When I'm the swan in my full dive,
F#m B D E E
just one thing keeps me alive.
[Chorus]
D A Bm F#m
Tenderness, put my heart to rest,
D F#m E E
your tenderness hits me to the bone.
D A Bm F#m
Tenderness when my head's a mess,
D F#m E E
your tenderness keeps me coming home.
[Bridge]
A A G G
And so it seems to me
F#m F#m F F***
to all of us here the answer is clear that you need a little less stress
G* ( A )
and some more tenderness.

your tenderness hits me to the bone.

your tenderness keeps me coming home.
