The remainder hardly needs tabbing.
E
Hey Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend,
A B
I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
E
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims,
A B
And strap your hands across my engines.
A Amaj7
And Together we could break this trap,
F#m Amaj7 E B4
We'll run till we drop and, baby we'll never go back.
A Amaj7
Oh will you walk with me out on the wire?
F#m Amaj7
Girl, I'm just a scared and a lonely rider,
C
But I gotta know how it feels,
C#m7
I want to know if love is wild, baby,
A B4
I want to know if love is real.
