Tenderness

[Intro] F  C  G

F              C                G            F
  I don't know when to start or when to stop
                 C              G               F
My luck's like a button I can't stop pushing it
               C         G               F
My head feels light But I'm still in the dark
                    C                   G
Seems like, without tenderness, there's something missing

( F  C  G )

G          F
Tenderness Where is the
C          F
Tenderness Where is it?

             C                 G                    F
I don't know where I am, but I know I don't like it
           C                  G                 F
I open my mouth and out pops something spiteful
             C                   G                  F
Words are so cheap, but they can turn out expensive
               C               G               Em
Words like conviction can turn into a sentence

Em
I held your hands
F               G              Em
Rings, but none on that finger
We danced and danced
           Am                G              Em
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
     F             G                 Em
Make sure that one night you're here
Continues after the ad
But next night you're not
          Am                  G
It always leaves me searching for a little

G          F
Tenderness Where is the
C          F
Tenderness Where is it?

C          G
Tenderness Where is it?

                  Em
Whistling in the graveyard
                 F
Calling up your girlfriend
                        G
Just trying to make her understand
                     F
You're squeezing the telephone like it was her hand
   Em
No question (so many questions)
                         F
She's going to catch you out, boy
                 G
It all seems so underhand
                                                        A#
Now she's the only thing that ever made you feel like a man, man
Madman, madman

          Am                  G

When you're sick to death of second best, pet
Why should the morning always find you unimpressed?
Is your love like a button?
You can't stop pushing it?
Oh, this all night longing can be such a long time
