Em
Oh how, at the journey's end
I lie in the heat of the night
Am Em
Feeling the heartache, wondering why
Am
I want a friend, I want a friend
Em
To lay down beside me
C
I want a friend, I want her now
Am D
Someone who knows what I mean when I say
CHORUS:
G
That I need tender hands to hold me,
E
I need tender hands tonight
Am
Will you lay them on my shoulders
G D
Will you lay them on my eyes
G
And I need tender hands to take me
E Am
All the way to paradise
C G
Then, when it's over
C D G
I need tender hands to hold me through the night
Em
Touch me with your velvet mouth
I will give all the love that I have
Am Em
Under the moonlight, reaching your heart
Am
Where are you now, where are you now
Em
Come out of the shadows
C
Where are you now, I want you now
Am D
You know that I cannot always be strong
CHORUS:
G
And I need tender hands to hold me
E
I need tender hands tonight
Am
Will you lay them on my shoulders
G D
Will you lay them on my eyes
G
And I need tender hands to take me
E Am
All the way to paradise
C G
Then, when it's over
C D G
I need tender hands to hold me through the night
BRIDGE:
Bb
I am only a voice in a city of noise
C
Can you hear me this time
Bb
I see the storm grow
C G
There's a light in the desert tonight
CHORUS:
G
And I need tender hands
E
Give me tender hands
Am G
Will you lay them on my shoulders
D G
Oh oh, give me tender hands to take me
E Am
All the way to paradise
C G
Then, when it's over

I have tender hands to hold you through the night

Darling, my tender hands will hold you through the night

I want those tender hands
G Em
Tender hands
