[Intro]
D FM7 D G/D  G2/D  D5  A/D
D C  G/B  Am7  G6  GM7
 
 
D            G/D
 Now that we love
D             G/D G2/D  D5     A/D  D
 Now that the lonely    nights are over
           G     A    D    G A
 How do we make love stay?
 
 
D            G/D
 Now that we know
D                  G/D    G2/D D5 A/D  Bm
 The fire can burn bright or   merely smolder
            G            A     D C/D D C/D
 How do we keep it from dying away?
 
 
D            G/D
 Elusive as dreams
D          G/D  G2/D  D5 A/D  D
 Barely remembered    in the morning
             G   A    D    G A
 Love like a phantom flies.
 
 
D                G/D
 But held in the heart
D                  G/D G2/D D5    A  Bm
 It pales like the empty    smile adorning
               G    A    D   D7sus D7
 A statue with sightless eyes.
 
 
[Bridge]
 GM7                        Bm               D
 Moments fleet, taste (so) sweet within the rapture
       Esus              E          A7sus A7
 When precious flesh is greedily consumed
 G                Bm                D
 But mystery's a thing not easily captured
     Em7                 C9      A7sus A7
 And once deceased, not easily exhumed.
 
 
D            G/D
 Now that we love
D             G/D G2/D  D5     A/D Bm
 Now that the lonely    nights are over
           G     A    D    C/D
 How do we make love stay?
 
 
[Adlib]
D G/D  G2/D  D5  A/D
D C  G/B  Am7  G6  GM7
D FM7 D G/D  G2/D  D5  A/D
Bm G A D D7sus D7
 
(Repeat Bridge)
 
 
D              G/D
 Now that we love
D            G/D G2/D D5    A/D Bm
 Look at the moonless night and tell me
            G    A     D  C/D
 How do we make love stay?
 
 
[Outro]
D G/D  G2/D  D5  A/D
D C  G/B  Am7  G6 A/D
