    F - G - F - G (4x)

 

    Am                          G               F                                   E

1. Dig, if you will, the picture, of you and I engaged in a kiss,

              Am                       G

    the sweat of your body covers me,

                                       E                      Am

    can you, my darling, can you picture (this).

 

                                       G                   F                             E

2. Dream, if you can, a courtyard, an ocean of violets in bloom,

    Am                   G

    animals strike curious poses,

                                          E                                Am

    they feel the heat, the heat between me and (you).

 

 Am                                        G            G                                    Am

How can you just leave me standing alone in a world that's so cold.

  Am                           G              G                               E                

Maybe I'm just to demanding, maybe I'm just like my father, too bold.

  Am                                     G         G                      Am

Maybe you're just like my mother, she's never satisfied.

  Am                                      G

Why do we scream at each other ?

  G                                     - E              

This is what it sounds like       when doves cry.

 

+ F - G - F - G (4x)

 

       Am                            G            F                                Am

3. Touch, if you will, my stomach, feel how it trembles inside.

      Am                           G

    You've got the butterflies all tied up,

                                                 E                        Am

    don't make me chase you, even doves have pride
