Em                D
And the night was filled with laughter 
Em              Am       D
Echoing  through painted smiles
Em              D
And I knew each morning after
Em              Em
I never loved , was never touched
D                D
Gave not at all, got back as much
F7            G
In the comfort of, 
  F7                    B7
A modern day version of love


Riff , Em

Em              D
Julie, how I've curse the sweet taste
Em              Am          D
Of lips that ask so much of me
Em             D
Still I wonder with every embrace
Em           Em
Could I give and not break
D             D
Should I care and forsake,  
       F7        G
All the  comfort of,  
  F7                    B7
A modern day version of love 


Riff, Em 

Em
Close my eyes and keep on runnin'
                                   Am
Realize it isn't gonna work  anymore 
 D   G   B7
 For me   
Em
I'm afraid for maybe that somethin'

Never cared enough to be afraid
   Am
Of anything
D   G        B7       B7
Be- fore, not before ______


Em                D
Barefoot child on streets of cinder
Em            Am           D
Sleeping child the morning calls
Em                  D
Pray for spring but taste the winter
Em            Em
Take the hand, taste the kiss
D                D
Leave behind the emptiness
       F7      G
And the comfort of
  F7                    B7
A modern day version of love
