Dont Renege On Our Love

Richard Thompson


Tom: Dm

         G                     F C
Now your eyes don't meet mine
G                              F C
You've got a pulse like fever
G                          F C
Do I take you for a lover
G
Or just a deceiver?
D5        C5      B5       A5
Simple is simple, Plain is plain
       D5       C5             B5        A5
If you leave me now, You won't come back again
         G           A
When the game is up
        G                   Dm C
Don't renege on our love, No
        G                   Dm C
Don't renege on our love, No
G
Don't renege on our love
A                         C  Dm
Don't renege on our love

Give me just an ounce of sympathy
Give me my chains of liberty
There's a rope that binds us
And I don't want to break it
If love is a healing
Why should we forsake it
Hunger is hunger, Need is need
Am I just another mouth to feed
When the game is up
Don't renege on our love

When my heart breaks
It breaks like the weather
If you leave me now
It'll thunder forever
Oh don't give it up
Don't renege on our love.
