TENDER WHEN I WANT TO BE (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
------------------------------------------------
[Actually in F; capo 5.  Each chord is half a measure, except two chords
 joined by a hyphen are a half-measure total.]
[In MCC's 1995 tour, she performed a version of this song that was straight
 rock 'n' roll.  That version had pretty much the same chords, except the
 bridge (the part with "I never would have known it...") used Dm Dm Em Em
 rather than Dm7 G C C/E.]
