The pleasure and the pain    (video)

 

    G - Am    - G - Am

 

    G                                             Am

1.     It's been a while since you came around,

G                                                    Am

    I missed you so, you know you broke me down,

F                                     D

    I was ready to give it one more try.

 

   G                   - Am    - G - Am

+     Play on !

 

   G                                                   Am

2.    While you were gone I tried to mend my heart,

G                                        Am

    but I didn't know even where to start,

       - F                                           D

    I       rather be with you even when we fight.

 

G                                 - F

    I'll take all you offer,       because it's all the same,

G                                          - F

    the thorn with the flower,        the pleasure and the pain.

G                                            - F

    I'll climb up that mountain,        because it's you again,

G                                   - F

    I can't live without it,        the pleasure and the pain.

 

    G                                       Am

3.     I love the way that you keep it real,

G                               Am

    you're not afraid to tell me the deal.

F                                                                D

    You tell me when I'm wrong, when I'm tripping out.

 

    G                                                    Am

4.     'Cause a man like me, needs a woman who,

G                                            Am

    who walk the wall and is a warrior, too, but

F                                                          D

    with that comes the truth and there is no doubt.

 

+  CHORUS        +  Am - Bm - Am - G    - Am - Bm - C - D

 

 

 

 

 

+  G - Am - G - Am

 

   G                                         Am

5.     I think this time we can make it through,

G                                           Am

    I'm still the me and you're still the you,

F                                                 D

    the only difference will be within our minds.

 

G                                 - F

    I'll take all you offer,       because it's all the same,

G                                          - F

    the thorn with the flower,        the pleasure and the pain.

G                                            - F

    I'll climb up that mountain,        because it's you again,

G                                   - F

    I can't live without it,        the pleasure and the pain.
