Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

Let it be dark in this caravan

Rocky lightning striking metal in the sand

I'm miles from common sense, as welcome as the rain

So close to madness that I even know it's name

Chorus

 Lay your lover's hands upon me

 Let me understand, you know?

 Lay your lover's hands upon me

 Let me go

 Lie to me sweetly

 Then discreetly leave me alone

 Lay your lover's hands upon me

 Let me go

Aw, let me go

Instrumental

Verse 2

Let there be thunder, let me feel the trembling pain

It takes me, now I'm desert clean, I'll never be again

Long past the dangerous point, I'm open and I'm free

I gave up the anchor when I gave up the sea

Chorus

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me understand, you know?

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me go

Lie to me sweetly

Then discreetly leave me alone

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me go

Aw, let me go

Instrumental

Bridge

 And the storm hits

 My finger tips

 And I'm prone to miss the pyramids

 I married that man the moment I could date

 And the flag snaps back

 And I'm scattered to the wind

 And the door pretends

 I never let you in

Instrumental

Verse 3

Let it be dark in this endless caravan

Rocked by lightning, striking metal in the sand

I'm miles from common sense, as welcome as the rain

So close to madness, that I even know her name

Chorus

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me understand, you know?

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me go

Lie to me sweetly

Then discreetly leave me alone

Lay your lover's hands upon me

Let me go

Aw, let me go
