Soldier Of Love tab by The Beatles

Guitar Tab 

Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And surrender to me (Sha la, la)
   Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And love me peacefully (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)
   Use your arms for loving me
   Baby, that's the way it's gotta be (Ooh)

   There ain't no reason for you to declare
   War on the one that loves you so
   So forget the other boys because my love is real
   Come off your battlefield

   Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And love me peacefully (Sha la, la)
   Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And love me tenderly (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)
   Use your arms to hold me tight
   Baby, I don't wanna fight no more (Ooh)

   The weapons you're using are hurtin' me bad
   But someday you're gonna see
   That my love for you baby, is the truest you've ever had
   A Soldier of Love, that's hard to be

   Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And love me peacefully (Sha la, la)
   Lay down your arms (Soldier of love)
   And surrender to me (Sha la, la) yeah (Sha la la)
   Use your arms to squeeze and please cos I'm the one that loves you so
   (Yeah, soldier of love) Baby, lay down your arms
   (Yeah, soldier of love) Baby, lay down your arms
   (Yeah, yeah) (fade out)
