Текст песни Clive Gregson — This Tender Trap + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
[Intro]
C Dm E F G F E Dm
[Verse]
C F C F G C E Am
They say that at the end it comes so fast, one final rush of air then gone at last
E Am E Am F Dm E
Now I’m not made for paradise, though I came close the once or twice, but what’s the use of living in the past
C F C F G C E Am
But here we are now standing face to face, and I’m the one who’s feeling out of place
E Am E Am F Dm G
What you see is what you get, what I see just makes me sweat, at times like these I can’t take the pace
[Chorus]
C F C F
Oh my darling, can’t you see, love has taken hold of me
C E Am F
And turned me into something that I thought I’d never be
C F C F
A nervous wreck, a hopeless case, a worried look upon my face
C Dm E C G C F G
Is this the way that love’s supposed to be - now you have laid This Tender Trap for me
[Verse]
C F C F G C E Am
I’m running just as fast as I can, but you’re the girl who always gets her man
E Am E Am F Dm E
Now love may end in happiness, one final word, one last caress, but I’ll never know just how this love began
C F C F G C E Am
My eyes are closed, I’m standing on the brink, and all this talk could drive a man to drink
E Am E Am F Dm G
Nothing ever hurt so as much as the power of a woman’s touch, you never give me time enough to think
[Chorus]
C F C F
Oh my darling, can’t you see, love has taken hold of me
C E Am F
And turned me into something that I thought I’d never be
C F C F
Lost for words, short of breath, an empty shell who’s scared to death
C Dm E C G C F G
Is this the way that love’s supposed to be - now you have laid This Tender Trap for me
[Bridge]
G F G F
As long as I have arms to hold you, I know I can never win
G F G F
As long as you can see me standing This Tender Trap will pull me in
[Chorus]
C F C F
Oh my darling, can’t you see, love has taken hold of me
C E Am F
And turned me into something that I thought I’d never be
C F C F
Lost for words, short of breath, an empty shell who’s scared to death
C Dm E C G C F G
Is this the way that love’s supposed to be - now you have laid This Tender Trap for me
C G C F G
Now you have closed This Tender Trap on me
