[G]

[G]Staring up into the solar s[C]ystem,

[C]All the stars are fixed up in the [G]sky.

[G]I just want to sparkle for a m[C]oment

[C]Before I just fizzle out and [G]die.

[C]I'm happy because I'm stupid.

Scared of [Dsus2]spiders, scared of flying.

[C]If I wasn't so happy,

I wouldn't [D]be so scared of dying.

[G]So just be gentle with me

([G]I'm not as y[Gsus4]oung as I w[G]as)

[G]And I'll be gentle with you

([G]I'm not as [Gsus4]brave as I th[C]ought)

'Cause [D]my heart gets broken so [C]easily.

So just be [Am]gentle, be gentle with[Dsus2] me.

[G]Wide awake, waiting like a [C]target

[C]Listening for things I cannot [G]see.

[G]Insects flutter up against my [C]window.

[C]I don't like the way they look at [G]me

[C]I guess I've always needed

To be [Dsus2]needed by someone.

It's [C]such a comforting feeling

Being [D]under someone's thumb.

[G]So just be gentle with me

[G](And if I [Gsus4]am ever [G]mean)

[G]And I'll be gentle with you

([G]I never [Gsus4]mean to be [C]mean)

[D]'Cause I want to pick peaches off of a [C]cherry tree.

Just be [Am]gentle, be gentle, be gentle,

Be gentle with[Dsus2] me.

Oh yeah [C]

Oh yeah [Dsus2]

Oh yeah [C]

Oh Yeah [D]

[G]So just be gentle with me

([G]Trouble [Gsus4]is somet[G]imes)

[G]And I'll be gentle with you

([G]I just [Gsus4]can't switch mys[C]elf off)

[D]When I want to so I [C]never do

Because I'm [Am]mental, be gentle, be gentle,

Just be ge[Am]ntle, be gentle, be gentle

And I'll be g[Am]entle, be gentle, be gentle,

Be gentle with [Dsus2]you.

[G]
