Chords for Because the Night - (Patti Smith Group) Cover by The Running Mates

_ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
Take [G] me now, [E] baby, here [Bm] as I am
Hold [G] me close and [A] try and [Bm] understand _
Desire [G] is hunger, [E] is the fire [Bm] I breathe
Love is a banquet [A] on which we [D] feed
Come on [A] now and try [D] and understand
[F#m] The way [D] I [A] feel under your command
[Bm] Take [D] my hand as the sun descends
[C] They can't hurt you [Bm] now, can't hurt you [F#] now, can't hurt you now
_ _ _ [Bm] Because [D] the night belongs to lovers
[Bm] Because the night [A] belongs [Bm] to us
Because [G] the night belongs [A] to lovers
[Bm] [D] Because the night [B] belongs to [Bm] _ _ us
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Have I doubted, baby, when I'm alone?
Love [G] is a ring on the [Bm] telephone
_ Love [G] is an angel disguised [Bm] as lust
Here [G] in our bed till the morning [Bm] comes
[D] Come [A] on now and try and understand
[F#m] The way [D] I feel under your [A] command
[D] Take my hand as the sun [A] descends
They [C] can't hurt you now, [Bm] can't hurt you [F#] now, can't hurt you now
_ _ _ [D] Because the night belongs [A] to lovers
[D] Because the night belongs [Bm] to us
[D] Because the night belongs [A] to lovers
[D] Because the night belongs [Bm] to us

_ _ [A] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ With [A] love we [D] sleep
[A] Without the vicious [F#m] cycle [A] turns and [D] burns
Without [A] you, oh, I [Bm] cannot live
Forgive [D] the yearning burning
I [D] believe it's time to reel [A] the feel
[Bm] So take me [D] now, take me now, [G] take me _ [F#] _
now
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] Because the [E] night belongs [A] to lovers
Because [D]
the night belongs [Bm] to us
[D] Because the night belongs [A] to lovers
[G] Because the night belongs [Bm] to us
