MY LOVE IS A GENTLE THING- Stephen Stills

TUNING: D A D F# A D (record down half a step)

    D6       A11/D  D   Dsus4  D
My love is gentle thing
     D6           A11/D  D  Dsus4  D
She moves with a whispering
     D6          A11/D    D   Dsus4  D
She waits for my mind to slow
     D6      A11/D D  Am
And then I'm hers to know

CHORUS:
Am        Em       D         Dsus4  D  Bm7+5  D
Have you seen her love eyes?
Am       Em       Bm     Gm   Bm   RIFF
Watching me, her love eyes

We lay in Hawai'i's sun
The water will make us one
The sleep of peace will come
The end of trouble has begun

Am        Em       D         Dsus4  D Bm7+5  D
Have you seen her love eyes?
Am       Em       Bm     Gm  Bm
Watching me, her love eyes  oooh
