/   Slide up
h   Hammer-on

Em                                        G/D  
 When all the worst we fear lets fall its weight

                                     C
When the gyre widens on and when the wave breaks

                                   Am
When St. Peter loses cool and bars the gates

     B7                               Em
When Atlas acts the maggot, makes his arms shake

                                        G/D  
When the birds are heard again in their singin'

                                C
Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin' shame

                                              Am
And when the earth is trembling on some new beginnin'

         B7                        C6
With the same sweet shock of when Adam first came

Em
Be, be, be, be, be

Gmaj7
Be as you've always been

C
Be, be, be, be, be

Am
Be as you've always been

Em
 Be as you've always been (Lover, be good to me)

G
 Be like the love that discovered the sin (Lover, be good to me)

     C                            Am
That freed the first man and will do so again

     Em
And, lover, be good to me (Lover, be good to me)

Em
 Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost (Lover, be good to me)

     G
It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed (Lover, be good to me)

      C                       Am
Which side of the wall really suffers that cost?

    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me

         Em
When the man who gives the order

   G/D  
Is born next time 'round on the boat sent back

         C
When the bodies starvin' at the border

       Am                   B7
Are on TV givin' people the sack

             Em
Oh, when the sea rises to meet us

                 G/D  
Oh, when there's nothin' left for you and I to do

                   C
Oh, when there's nobody upstairs to receive us

            Am                           B7   C6
When I have no kind words left, love for you

Em
Be, be, be, be, be

Gmaj7
Be as you've always been

C
Be, be, be, be, be

Am
Be as you've always been

  Em
Ah, be love in its disrepute (Lover, be good to me)

G
 Scorches the hillside and salts every root (Lover, be good to me)

    C                       Am
And watches the slowin' and starvin' of troops

     Em
And, lover, be good to me (Lover, be good to me)

Em
 Be there and just as you stand (Lover, be good to me)

G
 Or be like the rose that you hold in your hand (Lover, be good to me)

               C                    Am
That will grow bold in a barren and desolate land

    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me

                Em
Love, won't you be

             G
Be as you've always been?

                C
Love, won't you be

                Am
Love, won't you be

             Em
Be as you've always been?

                Em
Love, won't you be

             G
Be as you've always been?

                C
Love, won't you be

                Am
Love, won't you be

             Em            Em
Be as you've always been?
