Here's another one that I posted to r.m.m.g.t. last night for the archives:
Because the Night - Words and Music by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith
I'm lifting this straight out of Springsteen Complete...sounds much
better on piano/keyboard than solo guitar IMO, but here it is
anyway...all chords are either open (D,G,A,C) or barres near the nut
(F#,Bm).
Intro: Bm, G, A, Bm, G, A, Bm
Verse:
BmTake me Gnow, baby, Ahere as I Bmam.
Pull me Gclose try and AunderBmstand.
Desire is Ghunger, is the Afire I Bmbreathe.
Love is a Gbanquet on Awhich we Bmfeed.
GCome on Anow, try and DunderAstand
the Bmway I Gfeel when I'm in your Ahand.
DTake my Ghand; come under Acover.
They Ccan't hurt you now, Bmcan't hurt you now, F#can't hurt you now.
Chorus:
BmBecause Gthe night belongs Ato lovers.
BmBecause Gthe night belongs Ato Bmlust.
Because Gthe night belongs Ato lovers.
BmBecause Gthe night belongs Ato Bmus.
Second verse:
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.
Repeat chorus
Ending:
With Dlove Awe sleep; Dwith doubt Athe viscious circle Bmturn Aand turns.
DWithout Ayou I cannot Bmlive, Aforgive Dthe yearnAing, burning
I beGlieve Din time, Gtoo real to feel,
so Bmtouch me now, Dtouch me now, Gtouch me now. F#
Repeat chorus and fade.
