  Here's another one that I posted to r.m.m.g.t. last night for the archives:

  

  Because the Night - Words and Music by Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith

  

  I'm lifting this straight out of Springsteen Complete...sounds much 

  better on piano/keyboard than solo guitar IMO, but here it is 

  anyway...all chords are either open (D,G,A,C) or barres near the nut

  (F#,Bm).

  

  Intro: Bm, G, A, Bm, G, A, Bm

  

  Verse:

  

  Bm      G          A         Bm

  Take me now, baby, here as I am.

          G             A    Bm

  Pull me close try and understand.

            G              A      Bm

  Desire is hunger, is the fire I breathe.

            G          A        Bm

  Love is a banquet on which we feed.

  G       A            D    A

  Come on now, try and understand

      Bm    G                     A

  the way I feel when I'm in your hand.

  D       G                A

  Take my hand; come under cover.

       C                   Bm                  F#

  They can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now, can't hurt you now.

  

  Chorus:

  

  Bm      G                 A

  Because the night belongs to lovers.

  Bm      G                 A  Bm

  Because the night belongs to lust.

          G                 A

  Because the night belongs to lovers.

  Bm      G                 A  Bm

  Because the night belongs to us.

  

  

  Second verse:

  

  Have I doubt when I'm alone?

  Love is a ring on the telephone.

  Love is an angel disguised as lust,

  here in our bed until the morning comes.

  Come on now, try and understand

  the way I feel under your command.

  Take my hand as the sun descends.

  They can't touch you now, can't touch you now, can't touch you now.

  

  Repeat chorus

  

  Ending:

  

       D    A         D          A                   Bm   A

  With love we sleep; with doubt the viscious circle turn and turns.

  D       A            Bm    A       D        A

  Without you I cannot live, forgive the yearning, burning

      G     D        G

  I believe in time, too real to feel,

     Bm            D             G              F#

  so touch me now, touch me now, touch me now.

  

  

  Repeat chorus and fade.
