Bridge:
Bb                                      F
  When you're all caught up in sweet surrender

  I may stumble now and again
G           D         C          G
  But underneath this heart of darkness
C                        G          Am             D
  There's a heart that's loving you right till the end


Chorus 3:
C            D      G               C
  So hold me close,   come hold me, darling

  'Cause I want you to to know
G              D    C              G
  This love of ours   is no common flower
              C              D        G
