Baby when I met you there was peace unknown 
                            C6         C7 
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb. 
      F                                     C 
I was soft inside there was something going on.
[Strophe]
C                             C6      C 
You do something to me that I can't explain 
                     C6      C7         F 
Hold me closer and I feel no pain every beat of my heart 
                       C 
We got something going on.
[Pont]
C              Fmaj7 
Tender love is blind 
              F 
It requires a dedication. 
Fm 
All this love we feel needs no conversation. 
   C                C6 C 
We ride it together uh huh 
       C                    C6 C 
Making love with each other uh huh.

C6      F 
That is what we are 
Dm                        G 
No one in between how can we be wrong? 
      C           C6  F 
Sail away with me to another world 
         C                C6 C 
And we rely on each other uh huh 
         Dm               C6 C 
From one lover to another uh huh.
[Strophe]
C                               C6      C 
I can't live without you if the love is gone 
                               C6     C7 
Everything is nothing when you got no one 
            F 
And you did walk in the night 
                           C6   C 
Slowly losing sight of the real thing.
[Strophe]
    C                              C6     C 
But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt 
                            C6     C7 
Too deep in love and we got no way out 
        F 
And the messages is clear 
                              C6   C7 
This could be the year of the real thing.
[Pont]
C                Fmaj7                    F 
No more will you cry baby I will hurt you never.

We start and end as one in love forever 
   C                C6 C 
We ride it together uh huh 
       C                    C6 C 
Making love with each other uh huh.
