Because the Night  Patti Smith

 

As requested, here is the crd for because the night (the real version,
not the 10,000 maniacs one) which hopefully will wind up at nevada under
both bruce springsteen and patti smith.
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:
[Bm]Take me [G]now, baby, [A]here as I [Bm]am.
Pull me [G]close try and [A]under[Bm]stand.
Desire is [G]hunger, is the [A]fire I [Bm]breathe.
Love is a [G]banquet on [A]which we [Bm]feed.
[G]Come on [A]now, try and [D]under[A]stand
the [Bm]way I [G]feel when I'm in your [A]hand.
[D]Take my [G]hand; come under [A]cover.
They [C]can't hurt you now, [Bm]can't hurt you now, [F#]can't hurt you now.
Chorus:
[Bm]Because [G]the night belongs [A]to lovers.
[Bm]Because [G]the night belongs [A]to [Bm]lust.
Because [G]the night belongs [A]to lovers.
[Bm]Because [G]the night belongs [A]to [Bm]us.
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 [D]love [A]we sleep; [D]with doubt [A]the viscious circle [Bm]turn [A]and turns.
[D]Without [A]you I cannot [Bm]live, [A]forgive [D]the yearn[A]ing, burning
I be[G]lieve [D]in time, [G]too real to feel,
so [Bm]touch me now, [D]touch me now, [G]touch me now.[F#]
Repeat chorus and fade.
