Be

[Intro] Em  Em11  C  Am B

[Primera Parte]

Em                             
 When all the worst we fear lets 
              Em11
fall its weight
When the gyre widens on and when the
  C
 wave breaks
When St. Peter loses cool and bars 
Am
the gates
     B                           
When Atlas acts the maggot, makes 
     Em
his arms shake
When the birds are heard again in 
      Em11
their singin'
                                C
Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin'
 shame
And when the earth is trembling on 
           Am
some new beginnin'
         B                       
With the same sweet shock of when 
    C6
Adam first came

[Pre-Estribillo]

Em
Be, be, be, be, be
G
Be as you've always been
C
Be, be, be, be, be
Am
Be as you've always been
(Lover, be good to me)

[Estribillo 1]

Em
 Be as you've always been (Lover, be
 good to me)
G
 Be like the love that discovered 
the sin (Lover, be good to me)
     C                            
That freed the first man and will do
Am
 so again
     Em
And, lover, be good to me (Lover, be
 good to me)

Em
 Be that hopeful feeling when Eden 
was lost (Lover, be good to me)
     G
It's been deaf to our laughter since
 the master was crossed (Lover, be 
good to me)
      C                      
Which side of the wall really 
 Am
suffers that cost?
    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me

( Em  Em11 )

[Segunda Parte]

           Em
When the man who gives the order
   Em11
Is born next time 'round on the boat
 sent back
         C
When the bodies starvin' at the 
border
       Am                   B
Are on TV givin' people the sack
             Em
Oh, when the sea rises to meet us
                 Em11
Oh, when there's nothin' left for 
you and I to do
                   C
Oh, when there's nobody upstairs to 
receive us
            Am                     
When I have no kind words left, 
      B    C6
love for you

[Pre-Estribillo]

Em
Be, be, be, be, be
G
Be as you've always been
C
Be, be, be, be, be
Am
Be as you've always been
(Lover, be good to me)

[Estribillo 2]

  Em
Ah, be love in its disrepute (Lover,
 be good to me)
G
 Scorches the hillside and salts 
every root (Lover, be good to me)
    C                        Am
And watches the slowin' and starvin'
 of troops
     Em
And, lover, be good to me (Lover, be
 good to me)
Em
 Be there and just as you stand 
(Lover, be good to me)
G
 Or be like the rose that you hold 
in your hand (Lover, be good to me)
               C                   
That will grow bold in a barren and
 Am
 desolate land
    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me

                Em
Love, won't you be
Love, won't you be
             G
Be as you've always been?
                C
Love, won't you be
                Am
Love, won't you be
             Em
Be as you've always been?
                Em
Love, won't you be
Love, won't you be
             G
Be as you've always been?
                C
Love, won't you be
                Am
Love, won't you be
             Em            Em
Be as you've always been?
