CHORDS 
         B                       Eb
         If I could make a wish, I think I'd pass,

         E              Em          B
         Can't think of anything I need.

         B                           Eb
         No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound,

         E          Em               B
         Nothing to eat, no books to read.

Bridge:  Ebm                           Em                    B
         Making love with you has left me peaceful, warm and tired.

         Ebm                            Em                 B
         What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired.

         B                          Eb
         Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak,

         E                  Em           B
         So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep.

Chorus: 
         B                          F#                          B
         Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you.

                            F#                           B   
         All I need is the air that I breathe, yes, to love you.

                            F#                  F#m  E  B  F#
         All I need is the air that I breathe.
