Verse 1:

              B  G
Shoved in the kitchen of a city tomb

                C    G
The light would flicker like a violent womb

               B   G
The night was thicker than a smokey fume

G      Em      G
Liza waited in the room

Verse 2:

            B    G
Benny loved her like he loved no one

                C    G
The way she'd laugh and hold a smoking gun

                B    G
The way she always said what's done is done

  F   Em   G
And he was not the only one

Chorus:

G
Love is a gentle thing

G               C
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

G               C
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

Bridge:

G           B      G
A victim healer with a sharp sharp blade

            C    G
Benny knew how she was getting paid

                C    G   Em G
Her water broke and they would have to wade

Verse 3:

             B G
When he knew that she was fooling

            B     G
He faced the mirror to avoid the thing said

             C    G
We're outta money and we sold the bling

      F   Em    B   F   Em  B    G
And I just wanna take you home, I just wanna take you home

Chorus:

G
Love is a gentle thing

C            G
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

            B   F
Yours is thicker than a velvet ring

Outro:

     G  C   F
And I am wandering

   G  G
I am wandering?
