G
So many years of fighting off the world

G
Has left me with scars on my hand

G
At times I thought I'd die from the wounds I received

G
But now I wanna make you understand
[Chorus 1]
    D                     G
My bark is worse than my bite

    D                         G
My feelings are out in plain sight

Em                 A
Don't be afraid to touch me

Don't be afraid to love me, baby

Em                 A
Don't be afraid to love me, baby
[Verse 2]
G
You are such a teacher to me; you are so gentle

G
If I am rough you wilt right away

G
Or shatter into pieces, and I am left with nothing

G
I'm learning to be kinder everyday

Don't be afraid to love me, baby
