[B] Tambourine, where?
Must play.
[E] [B]
Tambourine, play.
Come on, everybody.
[E] [B]
Baby, when I met you, there was peace I know.
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb.
[E] I was soft inside.
There was something [B] going on.
You do something to me that I can't explain.
Oh, because you're in that beat, you know.
Beat [E] every beat of my heart.
We got something [B] going on.
Tender [E] love is [B] blind.
[E] It requires a dedication.
All this love we need, need no [B] conversation.
We ride it, shut up, come by.
We love it, shut up, come by.
I'm a friendless dream.
That [E] is what we are.

Too deep in love and we got nowhere.
I [C] must be just playing.
This could be the year [G] for the real thing.
No [C] more radio crap.
Baby, I heard you never [Cm] be smarter.
[G]
Together, ha ha.
Making love with each other, ha ha.
Pilots in the street.
[C] That is what we are.
[Am] No one in between.
How can we be wrong?

And we [G] rely on each other.

Have a good night.
