Because The Night Uke tab by Patti Smith

Intro: Bm, G, A, Bm, G, A, Bm



Bm      G          A         Bm
Take me now, baby, here as I am.
G      A    Bm
Pull me close try and understand.
  G A      Bm
Desire is hunger, is the fire I breathe.
  G     A        Bm
Love is a banquet on which we feed.
G       A            D    A
Come on now, try and understand
    Bm    G                     A
the way I feel when I'm in your hand.
D       G                A
Take my hand; come under cover.
     C                   Bm     F#
They can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now.


Chorus:

Bm      G                 A
Because the night belongs to lovers.
Bm      G                 A  Bm
Because the night belongs to lust.
        G                 A
Because the night belongs to lovers.
Bm      G  A  Bm
Because the night belongs to us.




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.
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.

chorus

fin

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