[Verse1]
[Em] When all the worst we fear lets fall its [D]weight
When the gyre widens on and when the [C]wave breaks
When St. Peter loses cool and bars [Am]the gates
When [B]Atlas acts the maggot, makes his [Em]arms shake
When the birds are heard again in their [D]singin'
Once atrocity is hoarse from [C]voicin' shame
And when the earth is trembling on some new [Am]beginnin'
With the [B]same sweet shock of when [C6]Adam first came
[Pre-chorus]
[Em]Be, be, be, be, be
[G]Be as you've always been
[C]Be, be, be, be, be
[Am]Be as you've always been
(Lover, be good to me)
[Chorus1]
[Em] Be as you've always been (Lover, be good to me)
[G] Be like the love
that discovered the sin (Lover, be good to me)
That [C]freed the first man and will [Am]do so again
And, [Em]lover, be good to me (Lover, be good to me)
[Em] Be that hopeful feeling when
Eden was lost (Lover, be good to me)
It's [G]been deaf to our laughter since the
master was crossed (Lover, be good to me)
Which [C]side of the wall really [Am]suffers that cost?
Oh, [Em]lover, be good to me
[Instrumental]

[Verse2]
When the [Em]man who gives the order
Is [D]born next time 'round on the boat sent back
When the [C]bodies starvin' at the border
Are on [Am]TV givin' people the [B]sack
Oh, when the [Em]sea rises to meet us
Oh, when there's [D]nothin' left for you and I to do
Oh, when there's [C]nobody upstairs to receive us
When I have [Am]no kind words left, love for [B]you [C6]
[Pre-chorus]
[Em]Be, be, be, be, be
[G]Be as you've always been
[C]Be, be, be, be, be
[Am]Be as you've always been
(Lover, be good to me)
[Chorus2]
[Em]Ah, be love in its disrepute (Lover, be good to me)
[G] Scorches the hillside and salts
every root (Lover, be good to me)
And [C]watches the slowin' and [Am]starvin' of troops
And, [Em]lover, be good to me (Lover, be good to me)
[Em] Be there and just as you stand (Lover, be good to me)
[G] Or be like the rose that you hold
in your hand (Lover, be good to me)
That will grow [C]bold in a barren and [Am]desolate land
Oh, [Em]lover, be good to me
[Outro]
Love, won't you [Em]be
Love, won't you be
Be as you've [G]always been?
Love, won't you [C]be
Love, won't you [Am]be
Be as you've [Em]always been?
Love, won't you [Em]be
Love, won't you be
Be as you've [G]always been?
Love, won't you [C]be
Love, won't you [Am]be
Be as you've [Em]always been? [Em]
