Utah Phillips - Touch Me

      [Verse 1]

C                 F
Touch me when I'm reading
G                 C
Touch me when I'm working
F            C
When I'm not looking,
D7                    G
Surprise me with your hand
C                    F      G  C
And lightly, without thinking, touch me

[Verse 2]

C                 F
Sometimes when I'm turning
G                 C
Brush me with your fingertips
F                 C
Know me with your tenderness,
D7              G
Not always, but now and then
C                    F      G  C
And lightly, without thinking, touch me

[Verse 3]

C                     F
I've never asked with words before
G                    C
I've said it all in reaching
F                     C
I've told you with my holding,
D7                  G
But now my arms are aching
C                    F      G  C
So lightly, without thinking, touch me

[Verse 4]

C                    F
Touch me through the darkness
G                 C
And all my secret places
F               C
Lift me from my sleeping,
D7                G
Recall me from my dreaming
C                    F      G  C
And lightly, without thinking, touch me
