Lovers in a Dangerous Time Bruce Cockburn
Actually, it's by Bruce Cockburn, but the ladies do a pretty decent version
of it too. This is how I do the song, not the same key as Cockburn, but
you get the idea.
Lovers in a Dangerous Time
[G]Don't the hours grow [Am9]shorter as the days go[F] by
[G]You never get to [Am9]stop and open your[F] eyes
[G]One day you're [Am9]waiting for the sky to[F] fall
[G]And next you're dazzled by the [Am9]beauty of it[F] all
When you're [G]lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time
[G]Lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time
[G]These fragile [Am9]bodies of touch and[F] taste
[G]This vibrant [Am9]skin, this hair like[F] lace
[G]Spirits [Am9]open to the thrust of[F] grace
[G]Never a brea[Am9]th you can afford to[F] waste
When you're [G]lovers[Am9] in a dangerous[F] time
[G]Lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time
When you're [G]lovers[Am9] in a dangerou[F]s time
[G]Lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time
[G]When you're [Am9]lovers in a dangerous[F] time
[G]Sometimes you're made to feel as [Am9]if your love's a[F] crime
[G]But nothing worth having comes [Am9]without some kind of[F] fight
[G]You gotta kick at the [Am9]darkness 'til it bleeds da[F]ylight
When you're[G] lover[Am9]s in a dangerous[F] time
[G]Lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time
When you're[G] lover[Am9]s in a dangerous[F] time
[G]Lovers [Am9]in a dangerous[F] time

When you're lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time
