[Intro]
---------------------
Em | G | C | Am 
B  | C 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em
  When all the worst
                            G
We fear lets fall its weight
When the gyre widens on
                 C
And when the wave breaks
When St. Peter loses
                  Am
Cool and bars the gates
       B               C
When Atlas acts the maggot,
              Em
Makes his arms  shake
When the birds are heard
                   G
Again in their singin'
Once atrocity is hoarse
         C
From voicin’ shame
And when the earth is trembling
              Am
On some new beginnin'
         D               B
With the same sweet shock of
         C
When 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

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Em
  Be as you've always been
G
 Be like the love that
Discovered the sin
          C
That freed the first man
           Am
And will do  so again
     Em
And, lover, be good to me
Be that hopeful feeling
When Eden was lost
          G
It's been deaf to our laughter
Since the master was crossed
      C
Which side of the wall
          Am
Really suffers that cost?
    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me

[Pre-Verse]
---------------------
Em G            Em
    When the man

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Who gives the order
       G
Is born next time 'round on
The boat sent back
           C
When the bodies
Starvin' at the border
        Am
Are on TV givin' people the sack
B C            Em
  Oh, when the sea rises to meet us
                 G
Oh, when there's nothin'
Left for you and I to do
                     C
Oh, when there’s nobody
Upstairs to receive us
            Am
When I have no kind
                      D  B C
Words left, love, for you



[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
   Em
Ah,  be love in its disrepute
G
That scorches the hillside
And salts every root
       C
And watches the slowin’
         Am
And starvin' of troops
     Em
And, lover, be good to me
Be there and just as you stand
G
 Or be like the rose that
You hold in your hand
                   C
That will grow bold in
               Am
A barren and desolate land
    Em
Oh, lover, be good to me
                  Em
Love, won't you be

[Outro]
---------------------
Love, won't you be
                 G
Be as you’ve always been?
                  C
Love, won't you be
                  Am
Love, won't you be
               Em
Be as you've always been?
Love, won't you be
Love, won't you be
               G
Be as you've always been?
                  C
Love, won't you be
                  Am
Love, won't you be
               Em
Be as you've always been?
