Bernadette
Bernadette ( The Four Tops ) 67
Intro: D
D C
Bernadette, people are searchin' for
F A
the kind of love that we possess.
D C
Some go on searchin' their whole life through
F A
and never find the love I've found in you.
F Dm Gm F Gm
And when I speak of you I see envy in other men's eyes,
F Dm Gm F Gm
and I'm well aware of what's on their minds.
Am C
They pretend to be my friend, when all the time
Gm Am C
they long to persuade you from my side.
Gm Am C
They'd give the world and all they own
Gm Am C
for just one moment we have known.
D C
Bernadette, they want you because
F A
of the pride that gives,
D C
But Bernadette, I want you because
F A
I need you to live.
F Dm Gm F Gm
But while I live only to hold you,
F Dm Gm F Gm
Some other men, they long to control you.
Gm Am C
But how can they control you Bernadette,
Gm Am C
when they can not control themselves, Bernadette,
Gm Am C
from wanting you, needing you,
D
But darling you belong to me.
C F
I'll tell the world you belong to me,
A D
I'll tell the world, you're the soul of me,
C F A
I'll tell the world you're a part of me, Bernadette.
F Bb Dm
In your arms I find the kind of peace of mind
A
the world is searching for,
F Bb Dm
But you, you give me the joy this heart of mine
A
has always been longing for.
F Dm Gm F Gm
In you I have what other men long for.
F Dm Gm F Gm
All men need someone to worship and adore,
Gm Am C
that's why I treasure you and place you high above,
Gm Am C
for the only joy in life is to be loved.
Gm Am C
So whatever you do, Bernadette, keep on loving me,
D C F A
Bernadette, keep on needing me,
Bernadette...
