[Verse]
G Em
I know sometimes you need me to be tender
C Cm
I don't give you much to go on, so I'm a- mazed at how you hold on to me
G D
Baby girl, I've never been this close before
C D
Never opened up that door, I'm still findin' my way
C G
Somethin' else that lovers do, when I've been by myself
C D
Never had to talk about movin' in with someone else
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em D
Then you kiss my face and it makes me smile
C Cm D
Girl, I want to lay with you right here with you for a little while
G D
When I feel that rush, comin' down all over me
C Bm Am D G
You're as far as I can see that's tender as I wanna be
Em C D
Tender as I wanna be, girl it's so tender
Em D
No maybe it's that hard to find someone to please me
C Am D
Or it could be that real true love sometimes don't come easy

Tender as I wanna be, girl it's so tender as I wanna be
