Here's a tab of one of the songs from Peter Gabriel's "Us"-album, since I couldn't
find it anywhere. Very easy to play a great acoustic version as well!

Em   022000
C    032010
D    x00232 (or, Dsus: x00230)
G    320033
F    133211
Am   x02210
A5   x02200

Intro: Em

Verse 1:
Em
So, you know how people are. When it's all gone much too far

The way their minds are made. Still, there's something you should know

That I could not let show that fear of letting go
            D                    Em
And in this moment, I need to be needed
          D                                    Em
With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked
        D                                Em
In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
                    C      G   
'Cause I love to be loved
  D          Em
I love to be loved 
             C      G
I love to be loved
      D           Em 
Yes, I love to be loved

Verse 2:
Em 
I cry the way that babies cry. The way they can't deny

the way they feel. Words, they climb all over you

'Til they uncover you from where you hide
            D                    Em
And in this moment, I need to be needed
        D                                    Em
When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked
        D                                Em
In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
                    C      G
'Cause I love to be loved
  D          Em
I love to be loved
             C      G
I love to be loved
     D          Em
Oh I love to be loved

Bridge:
F        Am       G        
This old familiar craving
     F                      Am     G
I've been here before, this way of behaving
F                  Am       G      F        Am G
Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore
F      Am          G         F
Let it pass let it go let it leave
         Am      G     F
From the deepest place I grieve
     Am   G F       Am  
This time I believe
    G     F   Am  G
And I let go
F  Am G   F   Am   
And I let go
  G       F        Am  G
I can let go of it
F               Am      G           F
Though it takes all the strength in me
    Am      G         F
And all the world can see
                  Am      G       F
I'm losing such a central part of me
          Am    G
I can let go of it
F          Am   G
You know I mean it
F             Am     G
You know that I mean it
F           Am       G   
I recognize how much I've lost
F                     Am   
But I cannot face the cost
        G           F      Am  G  F
'Cause I love to be loved
   Am  G        F      Am  G   
Yes I love to be loved
             F
I love to be loved
F            Am  A5
I love to be loved
F            Am  A5
I love to be loved
F     G          Am  A5
Yes I love to be loved
A   A5   A   A5


Note: listen to the record to get the exact timing of the chords. In the bridge-thingy,
you don't have to play Am inbetween F and G all the time to make it sound right. In the
last four or five lines the guitar changes to Am at the end of each line. I've put in
Am and A5 just for the sake of variation if you're playing an acoustic version. I don't
think it's actually on the recording.
