_ [D] Don't let me out of this kiss _ [Dm] _
_ Don't let [Cm] me say what I say
The _ [Ab] things that scare us today _ [Bb]
What _ [Eb] if they happen someday? _ _
[Ab] _ _ Don't let [Fm] me out of your arms [G] for now _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ What [D] if the sword kills the [Dm] man?
_ What [Cm] if the god kills the man?
[C] _ _ And [Fm] if he does it with love [Bb] _ _ Well [Eb] then it's death from above
[Ab] _ _ _ [D] And death from [Fm] above [G] still a threat
I _ _ _ _
[Ab] don't wanna live [G] without _ [Cm] you [Fm] I don't wanna live [G] without _ [Cm] _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ you

_ _ For [D] those who still can recall [Dm] _ The desperate [Cm] colors of fall
The [Ab] sweet caresses of May _
[Bb] Only _ [Eb] in poems remain
[Ab] _ _ No [D] one recites them these days [G] For the shame
So _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [D] what if nothing is _
[Dm] safe?
So what if [Cm] no one is _ _
[C] safe?
_ [Fm] No matter how sweet [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] No matter how brave
[Ab] _ _ _ [D] What if each [Fm] to his own [G] lonely grave? _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] I don't wanna live _ [G] without [Cm] you [Fm] I don't wanna live [G] without [Cm] you
[Ab] I don't wanna live, I don't wanna [G] live without you
