[Verse 1]
Asus2
That's all I wanted
                           Gsus2          Asus2
Something special, someone sacred in your eyes
Asus2
For just one moment
               Gsus2         Asus2
To be bold and naked at your side
 
 
Fsus2                           Gsus2       A
  Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
Fsus2                 Gsus2         Esus4     E
  Maybe this time is forever, say it can be, whoa
 
 
Asus2
That's all you wanted
                           Gsus2         Asus2
Somethin' special, someone sacred in your life
Asus2
Just for one moment,
               Gsus2      Asus2
To be warm and naked at my side
 
Fsus2                           Gsus2        A
  Sometimes I think that you'll never understand me
Fsus2                     Gsus2           E7sus4   E
  But somethin' tells me together, we'd be happy, whoa baby
 
[Chorus]
A
 I will be your father figure, put your tiny hand in mine
Gsus2
 I will be your preacher teacher aqnything you have in mind
A
 I will be your father figure, I have had enough of crime
Gsus2
I will be the one who loves you
                 A
'Til the end of time
 
[Interlude]
Asus2                Gsus2  Asus2
 Do, do, do, do, wow, wow

[Verse 2]
Asus2
 That's all I wanted
                           Gsus2         Asus2
But sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime
Asus2
 That's all I wanted
               Gsus2            Asus2
Just to see my baby's blue eyes shine
 
Fsus2                      Gsus2      A
  This time I think that my lover understands me (Me)
Fsus2                     Gsus2       E7sus4    E
  If we have faith in each other then we can be strong
 
[Chorus]
A
 I will be your father figure, put your tiny hand in mine
Gsus2
 I will be your preacher teacher anything you have in mind
A
 I will be your father figure, I have had enough of crime
Gsus2
I will be the one who loves you
                Fsus2
'Til the end of time
 
[Bridge]
Fsus2              G                 Fsus2
  If you are the desert, I'll be the sea
Fsus2           G               Fsus2
  If you ever hunger, hunger for me
Fsus2           G                        A
  Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be
 
Fsus2            G                       Fsus2
  So when you remember the ones who have lied
Fsus2                  G
  Who said that they cared but then
               Fsus2
Laughed as you cried
            G     E7sus4          E
Beautiful darling, don't think of me
                    Asus2
Because all I ever wanted
 
Gsus2         Asus2
 It's in your eyes baby (baby)
Gsus2          Asus2
 And love can't lie, no
Fsus2                       Gsus2
Greet me with the eyes of a child
Asus2
 My love is always tellin' me so
Fsus2                   Gsus2
 Heaven is a kiss and a smile
          E7sus4
Just hold on, hold on
   E                    A
I won't let you go, my baby
 
 
[Outro]
A
 I will be your father figure, put your tiny hand in mine
Gsus2
 I will be your preacher teacher
                      A
Anything you have in mind
A
 I will be your father figure, I have had enough of crime
Gsus2
I will be the one who loves you
                 A
'Til the end of time
A
I will be your father (I will be your)
Gsus2

I will be your (I'll be your daddy, oh)
Gsus2
I will be the one who loves you
