     Bm
Your precious love - that means so much

will it ever stop or will I just lose touch?
       G                    F#
What I want to say - but my words just fail

          Bm
Is that I need you so I can't help myself

Like a hungry child - I just help myself
             G                   F#           F#aug
And when I'm all full up - I got out to play
   Bm
Aw! Huh!

       Bm
Lonely as the moors on a winter's morning

Quiet as the sea on a good calm night
        G                   F#
In your tranquil shadow - I try and follow

            Bm
I hear your distant shoe clicks
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jam/precious_crd.html ]
To the midnight beat -

I feel trapped in sorrow

In this imagery

But that's how I am and why I need you so

 It's just that I need something solid in mine

Believe me baby!

If the sky fell from above

I said who's your precious love?

If the sky fell from above

Buddy, who's your precious love?
