[F] [Bb] [Eb]
[Dm] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Gm]
[F] [Eb]
[Bb] Even though [Eb] I'm in [Gm] love,
[Dm] [F] [Eb] sometimes I get so [Bb] afraid.
I say something [Eb] so [Dm] wrong.
[Eb] Just to have something to [Bb] say.
I [Fm] know the moment is right.
[G] [Cm] To tell the [Eb] girl a comical [Ab] line, to [Gm] keep the [Fm] conversation light.
[G] I [Cm] guess I'm just [Eb] frightened out of [F] my [Gm] mind, but if [C] that's [Eb] how I
[F] feel
Then [Eb] it's the best feeling [Bb] I've ever known, it's deniably [Eb]
[Dm] real
[Cm] Leave a tender moment [Bb] alone
Yes, I know [Eb] I'm in [Dm] love
[F] [Cm] But just when I ought to [Bb] relax my foot and [Eb] my
[Dm] [F] mouth
[Cm] Cause I'm just avoiding [Bb] the facts
If the girl [Fm] gets too [G] close, [Cm] then I [Eb] need some room [Ab] to escape
[Eb] When the moment [Fm] arrives, [G] I [Cm] tell her it's all [F] a mistake
[Bb] But that's not how I [F] feel
[Eb] No, that's not the woman [Bb] I know, she's undeniably [Eb] real
[F] [Eb] So leave a tender moment [Bb] alone
But it's not [Am] only me
[C] Breaking down when [Eb] the tension [Gm] gets high
[Cm] Just when [G] I'm in a serious mood, [Em] she is suddenly [Dm] quiet [Db] and [Bb] shy
[Eb]
[Dm] Leave [Eb] a tender moment [Bb] alone
Leave a tender moment, [Eb]
leave it [Dm] [F] alone
[Eb] Leave a tender moment [Bb] alone
No, the [Fm] moment isn't right
[G] [G] [Eb] To hold my emotions [Ab] inside, to [Gm] change the attitude [Fm] tonight
[G] [Cm] I've run [Eb] out of [F] places to hide, [Bb] and if [Eb] that's how I feel
[Bb]
[F] Then it's [Cm] the best [Bb] feeling I've ever [Dm] known, it's undeniably [Gm] [Dm]
real
[F] [Eb] Oh, leave a tender moment [Bb]
alone
[Eb] Oh, [Gm] [F]
[Eb] leave a tender moment [Bb] alone
Leave a tender moment, [Gm] [F] leave it alone
Leave [Cm] a tender moment, [Bb]
leave [Gm] [F] it alone
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Dm]
[Eb] [Bb]
