Verse 1:
Dmaj7
I was in a modern daze
                                 A7sus4     A7
Of finding all the better ways to be
Bm
Then you caught my eye
B7
And the world caught on fire
    Em7                     A7
And I said "I maybe don't know"

Verse 2:
Dmaj7
You lived in a castle where
                                   A7sus4    A7
The sun sang out a little prayer a day
Bm                            B7
How all of my needs felt like rosary beads
    Em7                          A7sus4
Oh, millions just there for the show

Pre-chorus:
A       (nc)                   G
I loved the part when you just asked my name and
Gm                     Dmaj7
The choir sang and the roses grew a metaphor as you wait
         G                     Gm
Well you knew my stories, though dumb and boring
     Dmaj7                            A7     (nc)
You never looked, you never looked away (way, way, way)

Chorus:
Dmaj7
Tenderly
   Dmaj7 C#ma7 G
It's how you speak to me
     G  Gadd#9  A7sus4       A7                 D7sus4         D
It's how you say the little lines that keep my mind quiet at night
Dmaj7    D7             G          Gadd#9
We can dance though I really can't dance
         A7sus4             A7
Though I know you'll still smile
               D           Bm                G
Because you're happy to be dancing with your prince
              A7sus4             A7       Dmaj7
Who's got two left feet and clams for hands

Pre-chorus:
A  (nc)
Darling dear, I know the songs
     G
They made you weary
    Gm
But feel these feelings
        Dmaj7
They're stronger than a tangible array
          G                Gm
Well I'll never know all I feel for you
     Dmaj7                           A7
I'll always know that all I feel is true (true, true, true)

Chorus:
Dmaj7
Tenderly

It's how you speak to me
     G  Gadd#9  A7sus4       A7                 D7sus4         D
It's how you say the little lines that keep my mind quiet at night
Dmaj7    D7       C#ma7 G          Gadd#9
We can dance though I really can't dance
         A7sus4             A7
Though I know you'll still smile
               D           Bm                G
Because you're happy to be dancing with your prince
              A7sus4         A7
Who's got two left feet and clams
A7sus4 A  D
Clams for hands
