INTRO: G Em Am G
 
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
       C               D                    Em
I have tender hands to hold you through the night
            C                 D                    G     
Darling, my tender hands will hold you through the night
 
 
OUTRO: (fade toward end)
            G           Em
I want your tender hands
         G           Em
You have tender hands
             G            Em
I want those tender hands
G            Em
Tender hands
