Leave a Tender Moment Alone Chords & Lyrics by Billy Joel
Leave a Tender Moment Alone
guitar chords lyrics
Ebmaj7 F
Even though I'm in love
Cm7 Bb
Sometimes I get so afraid
Ebmaj7 F
I'll say something so wrong
Cm7 Bb
Just to have something to say
Fm G Bm7
I know the moment isn't right
Cm7 Bb Ab
To tell the girl a comical line
Fm G Bm7
To keep the conversation light
Cm7 Bb Ab
I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind
Ebmaj7 F
But if that's how I feel
Cm7 Bb
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
Ebmaj7 F
It's undeniably real
Cm7 Bb
Leave a tender moment alone
Ebmaj7 F
Yes I know I'm in love
Cm7 Bb
But just when I ought to relax
Ebmaj7 F
I put my foot in my mouth
Cm7 Bb
Cause I'm just avoiding the facts
Fm G Bm7
If the girl gets too close
Cm7 Bb Ab
If I need some room to escape
Fm G Bm7
When the moment arose
Cm7 Bb Ab
I'd tell her it's all a mistake
Ebmaj7 F
But that's not how I feel
Cm7 Bb
No that's not the woman I've known
Ebmaj7 F
She's undeniably real
Cm7 Bb
So leave a tender moment alone
Am
But it's not only me
D Eb Dm7
Breaking down when the tension gets high
Cm7 G
Just when I'm in a serious mood
D7 F Bb7 Cm7
She is suddenly quiet and shy
F
Leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7
Leave it alone
Fm G Bm7
I know the moment isn't right
Cm7 Bb Ab
To hold my emotions inside
Fm G Bm7
To change the attitude tonight
Cm7 Bb Ab
I've run out of places to hide
Ebmaj7 F
And if that's how I feel
Cm7 Bb
Then it's the best feeling I've even known
Ebmaj7 F
It's undeniably real
Cm7 Bb
Leave a tender moment alone
Cm7
You got to leave a tender moment alone
F
Leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7
Leave it alone
F
You've got to leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7
Leave a tender moment alone
