D#maj7 F
even though i’m in love
Cm7 A#
sometimes i get so afraid
D#maj7 F
i’ll say something so wrong
Cm7 A#
just to have something to say

Fm G Bm7
i know the moment isn’t right
Cm7 A# G#
to tell the girl a comical line
Fm G Bm7
to keep the conversation light
Cm7 A# G#
i guess i’m just frightened out of my mind

D#maj7 F
but if that’s how i feel
Cm7 A#
then it’s the best feeling i’ve even known
D#maj7 F
it’s undeniably real
Cm7 A#
leave a tender moment alone

D#maj7 F
yes i know i’m in love
Cm7 A#
but just when i ought to rela
x D#maj7 F
i put my foot in my mouth
Cm7 A#
cause i’m just avoiding the facts

Fm G Bm7
if the girl gets too close
Cm7 A# G#
if i need some room to escape
Fm G Bm7
when the moment arose
Cm7 A# G#
i’d tell her it’s all a mistake

D#maj7 F
but that’s not how i feel
Cm7 A#
no that’s not the woman i’ve known
D#maj7 F
she’s undeniably real
Cm7 A#
so leave a tender moment alone

Am
but it’s not only me
D D# Dm7
breaking down when the tension gets high
Cm7 G
just when i’m in a serious mood
D7 F A#7 Cm7
she is suddenly quiet and shy

F
leave a tender moment
D#maj7
leave it alone

Fm G Bm7
i know the moment isn’t right
Cm7 A# G#
to hold my emotions inside
Fm G Bm7
to change the attitude tonight
Cm7 A# G#
i’ve run out of places to hide

D#maj7 F
and if that’s how i feel
Cm7 A#
then it’s the best feeling i’ve even known
D#maj7 F
it’s undeniably real
Cm7 A#
leave a tender moment alone

Cm7
you got to leave a tender moment alone
F
leave a tender moment
D#maj7
leave it alone
F
you’ve got to leave a tender moment
D#maj7
leave a tender moment alone
