You're not asking for diamonds

You don't want furs
          A minorAm
You don't dream of silver and gold
      FF         G+G
All you're asking is to be cherished
          C majorC
To be held and to hold

 C majorC
You don't need me to come round

Solving your problems
          A minorAm
You need more than blankets in the cold

And all that you want is a chance to get closer

To be held and to hold

To be held and to hold

      C majorC     G+G      A minorAm
And still sometimes I fail at the task
          FF            G+G
When all that you want is a chance to get closer
          C majorC  C majorC
To be held and to hold


Verse:
        C majorC
I walk around blindly

I bumble along
    A minorAm
In my heart I know that I'm wrong
       C majorC
It's a cold consolation

I'm sorry again
          A minorAm
One more time the same story told
         FF            G+G
And all that you want is a chance to get closer

To be held and to hold
