Leave A Tender Moment Alone chords by Billy Joel

Chords with lyrics

Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
Even though I'm in love
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Sometimes I get so afraid
          Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
I'll say something so wrong
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Just to have something to say

F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
I know the moment isn't right
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
To tell the girl a comical line
            F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
To keep the conversation light
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind

Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
But if that's how I feel
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
          Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
It's undeniably real
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Leave a tender moment alone

Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
Yes I know I'm in love
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
But just when I ought to relax
          Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
I put my foot in my mouth
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Cause I'm just avoiding the facts

F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
If the girl gets too close
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
If I need some room to escape
            F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
When the moment arose
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
I'd tell her it's all a mistake

Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
But that's not how I feel
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
No that's not the woman I've known
          Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
She's undeniably real
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
So leave a tender moment alone

A minorAm
But it's not only me
D MajorD           Eb MajorEb   Dm7Dm7
Breaking down when the tension gets high
Cm7Cm7        G+G
Just when I'm in a serious mood
D7D7       FF     Bb7Bb7  Cm7Cm7
She is suddenly quiet and shy

FF
Leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Leave it alone

F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
I know the moment isn't right
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
To hold my emotions inside
            F minorFm  G+G Bm7Bm7
To change the attitude tonight
Cm7Cm7        Bb majorBb    AbAb
I've run out of places to hide

Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
And if that's how I feel
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
          Ebmaj7Ebmaj7  FF
It's undeniably real
Cm7Cm7          Bb majorBb
Leave a tender moment alone

Cm7Cm7
You got to leave a tender moment alone
FF
Leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Leave it alone
FF
You've got to leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Ebmaj7
Leave a tender moment alone
