A
Put away my black book
Put it on the fire
                 C
Getting out the side door
           A
You are my one desire

               D
Baby when you hold me
             A
I see you're everything
               D
Baby when you touch me
   C
I need nothing no more

Put away my black book
Put in on the fire
Don't give up on me Lord
Take my spirit higher

Nothing can behold me
Don't put me on the fire
Baby when you hold me
I will see no fear

Baby when you touch me
You see it in my eyes
Put away my black book
Put it on the fire

I've made up my mind
I got nothing to hide
I've made up my mind
I got nothing to hide

Give me my soul - x7
Give you my soul
Give me my soul
Give you my soul - x10
Give you
Give you my soul - x4
