Artist: Smalltown Poets Song: If You Let Me Love You Submitter: Casey Townsend >From the self titled album: Smalltown Poets Copyright 1997 on Forefront records The beat of this song is just a steady down-up-down-up stroke with mutes at every third stroke: \/ = down /\ = up \(mute)/ down & mute (i.e. \/ /\ \(mute)/ /\ \/ /\ \(mute)/) Play comfortably fast verse I don't know what to do to ease your mind Don't have a perfect word to make it fine I'm not so qualified for sympathy Still I am not without love (second verse is the same as the first) Psalm #4 falls on your grieving ear, Yes I believe the peace of Christ is here And I'm here in His name, You'd do the same, you'd do the same, you'd do the same Chorus If you let me close Closer than a brother If you let me love you we'll sit here and cry [: If you let me love you :] Bridge Never failing; ever hoping Seeking to preserve It always is giving Often beyond words And when there's nothing left to Say, love has a voice, So in sorrow, and in heart ache There's a greater joy. (repeat first verse and chorus)
