[N] [F#m] Sing to me baby in your native tongue
Sing the words of the wise and the young
[D] Show me the place where [A] your words come [E] from
[F#] Love's the language, love's your native [F#m] tongue
Feel your heartbeat, [B] bang the drums
[C#] Open up your eyes and feel [B] your lungs
[A] The same word from where the stars are flung
[F#] Love's the language, [G#] love's your native [F#m] tongue
Oh, it's the beat in your mind
In the boobie of [D] my soul
Such a long way [B] from my [A] smiles
[C#] My native [F#m] tongue, my friend
Where did we go wrong, my lord?
We forgot our song, my soul
[E] Such a long way [C#] from my [B] smiles
My [C#]
native tongue
[F#]
[B] Bring it to me, whisper into [F#] my ear
Accusers' voices start to disappear
[A] In the wind, in the tongues of the flame
[E] In my soul, in my one true name
Back before we learned [F#m] the words to start a fight
Back before they told us that the haters were [A] right
You spoke the truth, let there be in their [E] words
Love's the language, love's your [F#m] native tongue
It's the beat in your mind
In the boobie [D] of my soul
Such a long [F#m] way from my smiles
[C#] My [F#m] native tongue, my friend
Oh, my lord
We forgot our [A] song, our soul
[E] Such a long [C#] way from my
[F#m] My native tongue
The singing I can't learn [E] yet
The voices in the crowd [Bm] yet
Even [B] when the times are down, you're out [D] yet
[C#] Your love, your native [F#m] tongue
The singing I can't learn [E] yet
Louder than the darkness and the cold
[Bm] Louder than the curses and the times [D] yet
Your lips, [E] your love's your [F#] native tongue
[F#m] It's the beat in [A] your mind
In the boobie [D] of my soul
Such a long [F#m] way from my smiles
[C#] My native [F#m] tongue, my friend
Did we go [A] wrong, my lord?

I
