        Am                D7\F#        C
You say want someone with open arms to walk into
  Am                  D7\F#         E7
A knight who shines inside a shabby suit
    Am                D7\F#           C             D
The Kind of guy who'd rather die than not have you
G                D\F#    E7
So that he could never be untrue

    Am           D7\F#            C
You say that his heart would miss precious beats
   Am           D7\F#          E7
If you began to kiss him tenderly
   Am              D7\F#           C           D
No richer than the average man but poor in vanity
        G               D7\F#      E7
Well if that is all you want honey please

Am    Am\G           D7\F#

Am    Am\G           D7\F#
           Let it be me

               Am                D7\F#              C
Well he should hold himself like no-one else you've ever seen
    Am                D7\F#           E7
And make you proud to step out in the street
              Am                D7\F#                 C           D
And he should help you kill the doubts that fill your every dream
      G              D\F#          E7
Well, hey if that is all he has to be

Am    Am\G           D7\F#

Am    Am\G           D7\F#
           Let it be me

          Am                                 D
Let it be me who hold your cup while you put on your make up
          Am                                 D
Let it be me who creeps round quietly before you wake up
          Dm                Em              E7
Let it be me who brings you toast asks "Who loves you most?"
               Am    Am\G    D7\F#     Am    Am\G     D7\F#
Baby let it be me

            Am                D7\F#            C
You say you want someone with boyish charm and manners too
         Am              D7\F#       E7
Who will take a risk and follow destiny
             Am                 D7\F#       C               D
The kind who holds the door whatever you're going through
    G            D\F#       E7
Somebody who, in loving you sets you free

Am    Am\G           D7\F#
