G
I carried my heart unbuttoned
Am
Across the lonely stage
G
Where all the fools and actors
Am
Circled like birds of prey
C B7
But careful with the rose, she knows
Em C
Every word in every scene
G D G C G
O please be good to me
G
I let the liar have me
Am
The forger and the cheat
G
Love is the legal tender
Am
They tried to steal from me
C
Tell me how you lose
B7 Em C
What you wanna give away for free

O please be good to me

G
When love's light is shining elsewhere
Am
The cold is hard to shake
G
But when it's shining on you
Am
The winter melts away

I don't want to know how so
Em C
I just want to feel the heat

O please be good to me
