Billy Joel – Leave A Tender Moment Alone chords

                    Ebmaj7   FEven though I'm in love
Cm7                    BbSometimes I get so afraid
                    Ebmaj7   FI'll say something so wrong
Cm7                    BbJust to have something to say

                        Fm   G  Bm7I know the moment isn't right
Cm7                Bb        AbTo tell the girl a comical line
                        Fm   G  Bm7To keep the conversation light
Cm7                Bb        AbI guess I'm just frightened out of my mind

                   Ebmaj7   FBut if that's how I feel
Cm7                    BbThen it's the best feeling I've even known
                   Ebmaj7   FIt's undeniably real
Cm7                    BbLeave a tender moment alone

                   Ebmaj7   FYes I know I'm in love
Cm7                    BbBut just when I ought to relax
                   Ebmaj7   FI put my foot in my mouth
Cm7                    BbCause I'm just avoiding the facts

                        Fm   G  Bm7If the girl gets too close
Cm7                Bb        AbIf I need some room to escape
                        Fm   G  Bm7When the moment arose
Cm7                Bb        AbI'd tell her it's all a mistake

                   Ebmaj7   FBut that's not how I feel
Cm7                    BbNo that's not the woman I've known
                   Ebmaj7   FShe's undeniably real
Cm7                    BbSo leave a tender moment alone

                 AmBut it's not only me
D                      Eb      Dm7Breaking down when the tension gets high
Cm7                GJust when I'm in a serious mood
D7              F         Bb7   Cm7She is suddenly quiet and shy

FLeave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Leave it alone

                        Fm   G  Bm7I know the moment isn't right
Cm7                Bb        AbTo hold my emotions inside
                        Fm   G  Bm7To change the attitude tonight
Cm7                Bb        AbI've run out of places to hide

                   Ebmaj7   FAnd if that's how I feel
Cm7                    BbThen it's the best feeling I've even known
                   Ebmaj7   FIt's undeniably real
Cm7                    BbLeave a tender moment alone

Cm7You got to leave a tender moment alone
FLeave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Leave it alone
FYou've got to leave a tender moment
Ebmaj7Leave a tender moment alone
