Be

[Intro] Em  Em11  C  Am B

[Primeira Parte]

Em                                           Em11
 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
     B                                Em
When Atlas acts the maggot, makes his arms shake
                                        Em11
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'
         B                           C6
With the same sweet shock of when Adam first came

[Pré-Refrão]

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

[Refrão 1]

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  Em11 )

[Segunda Parte]

           Em
When the man who gives the order
   Em11
Is born next time 'round on the boat sent back
         C
When the bodies starvin' at the border
       Am                   B
Are on TV givin' people the sack
             Em
Oh, when the sea rises to meet us
                 Em11
Oh, when there's nothin' left for you and I to do
                   C
Oh, when there's nobody upstairs to receive us
            Am                           B    C6
When I have no kind words left, love for you

[Pré-Refrão]

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

[Refrão 2]

  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
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
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?
