[D#] [C#] [G#] [G#sus4]
Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine
[D#] [C#] [G#] [G#sus4]
Though you and I both know it's only the warm glow of wine
[C#] [G#]
That's got you to feeling this way, but I don't care,
I want you to stay
[D#] [C#] [G#]
And hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
[D#] [C#] [G#] [G#sus4]
Children are dancin', the gamblers are chancin' their all
[D#] [C#] [G#]
The window's accusing the door of abusing the wall
[C#]
But who cares what the night watchmen say
[G#]
The stage has been set for the play
[D#] [C#] [G#]
Hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
[D#] [C#] [G#]
[G#sus4]
The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on on to the sky
[D#] [C#] [G#] [G#sus4]
The wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me ask why
[C#]
The poets are demanding their pay
[G#] [G#sus4]
They've left me with nothin' to say
[D#] [C#] [G#]
'cept hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
[D#] [C#] [G#]
Just hold me and tell me that you'll be here to love me today
