Em 
Oh how, at the journey's end, I lie in the heat of the night 
                 Am                Em 
Feeling the heartache, wondering why,  
           Am                                   Em 
I want a friend, I want a friend to lay down beside me 
           Am                C                 Am                      D 
I want a friend, I want her now, someone who knows what I mean when I say,  

             G                               Em 
That I need tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight 
          Am  
Will you lay them on my shoulders 
          G             D 
Will you lay them on my eyes 
            G                               E             Am 
And I need tender hands to take me all the way to paradise 
      C             G 
And then, when it's over 
        C               D                   G    D 
I need tender hands to hold me through the night 

 Em 
Touch me with your velvet mouth, I will give all the love that I have 
               Am                   Em 
Under the moonlight, reaching your heart 
               Am                                       Em 
Where are you now, where are you now, come out of the shadows 
               Am                C 
Where are you now, I want you now 
              Am                    D 
You know that I cannot always be strong,  

            G                               Em 
And I need tender hands to hold me, I need tender hands tonight 
          Am 
Will you lay them on my shoulders 
          G             D 
Will you lay them on my eyes 
            G                               E             Am 
And I need tender hands to take me all the way to paradise 
      C             G 
And then, when it's over 
        C               D                   G     
I need tender hands to hold me through the night 

     Bb                                        C 
A am only a voice in a city of noise, can you hear me this time 
            Bb                                C        D 
I see the storm grow, there's a light in the desert tonight 

            G                     Em 
And I need tender hands, give me tender hands 
        G                              Em 
I need tender hands all over, give me tender hands all night 
          Am 
Will you lay them on my shoulders 
          G             D 
Will you lay them on my eyes 
            G                               E             Am 
And I need tender hands to take me all the way to paradise 
      C             G 
And then, when it's over 
        C               D                    Em     
I have tender hands to hold you through the night 
        C               D                    G    Em 
I have tender hands to hold you through the night 
 D       G           Em 
Give me tender hands 
   D         G 
I want your tender hands
