You brought me to trust you brought me to tears
E
In one tender touch the pain disappears
E
I have been to the sword seen it come seen it die
E
As we enter the dark I beseech you to try
Asus2
In prophecy all good things must end
F#M Asus2
So take care my love my friend
E Asus2
Keep it precious ohhh
E
Keep it precious
E
This yielding is fine this promise rare
E
One day at a time we've agreed to dare
E
Holding you tight with wide open arms
E
I'm letting you go no stranger to harm
Asus2
Ride your way do not break or bend
F#M Asus2
Just take care my love my friend
E Asus2
Keep it precious ohhh
E
Keep it precious
Asus2 E
And the wonder let the wonder never cease
Asus2(hold)
And the madness of the pleasure and ecstasy
Danger believing me
B
Wounding and healing me please
E
Keep it precious
E
I believe in your eyes I believe in your fate
E
I believe we can fly on the wings we create
E
A voice from behind calls up anger and fear
E
We can silence that scream it's simple and clear
Asus2
Nothing must die only if failed to mend
F#M Asus2
So take care my love my friend
E
Keep it precious
