            (Capo 1st fret.)
#1.
C
Bernadette, people are searchin' for
A
the kind of love that we possess.
C
Some go on, searchin' their whole life through,
A
and never find the love I've found in you.

CHORUS:
C
And when I speak of you, I see envy in other men's eyes.
C
And I'm well aware of what's on their minds.
C
They pretend to be my friend, when all the time
C
they long to persuade you from my side.
       Am
They'd give the world and all they own
         C
for just one moment we have known.

#2.
C
Bernadette, they want you because of the pride that it gives.
    A
But Bernadette, I want you because, I need you to live.

CHORUS:#2.
C
But while I live only to hold you,
C
some other men, they long to control you.
C
But how can they control you Bernadette,
     C
when they can not control themselves, Bernadette,
     C
from wanting you, needing you, but darling, you belong to me.

#3.
Bb
Bernadette, I'll tell the world you belong to me.
D
I'll tell the world....you're the soul of me.
     A
I'll tell the world you're a part of me..Bernadette!

CHORUS:
Dm
In your arms I find the kind of peace of mind
                       Bb
the world is searching for.
    Bb
But you, you give me the joy this heart of mine
    A
has always been longing for.

CHORUS:
C
In you I have what other men long for.
C
All men need someone to worship and adore.
C
That's why I treasure you, and place you high above..
C
for the only joy in life is to be loved.
D
So whatever you do, Bernadette, keep on loving me,
A
Bernadette, keep on needing me...Bernadette!

OUTRO:
Bb
Bernadette, you're the soul of me..more than a dream,
       C
you're clear to me.
    Bb
And Bernadette, you mean more to me, than a woman was
     A
ever meant to be...(Fade.)
