The Love Song

G D/F# Em C(add9) G D/F# Em C(add9)

INTRO

G Bm7 C(add9) G/B

First time I felt it, think I was five years old.

Am7 Cmaj7 D

I was scared, had a nightmare, Momma was there for me to hold.

G Bm7 C(add9) G/B

Daddy, he was different... he never said it much,

Am7 Cmaj7 D

But I heard him loud and clear when he brought home that ball and glove.

Em D/F# C(add9) D/F#

Then it took on a brand new meaning,

Em D/F# C(add9) G/B Bb6 D

I wasn't just a boy no more, when she moved in next door.

G D/F#

Where you from? What's your name?

Em

Wanna go to my game?

C D

Got the keys to my Dad's old truck.

G D/F# Em

Turn the radio off to remember the song,

D C

We held hands and there it was,

D/F# G D/F# Em C D

Lo - ve.

G Bm7 C(add9) G/B

Pages kept on turnin', there I was with someone else.

Am7 Cmaj7 D

First time in my lifetime, I wasn't livin' for myself.

G Bm7 C(add9) G/B

I knew I wasn't fallin', anywhere I'd fell before.

Am7 Cmaj7 D

This place was different: it was deeper, it was more.

Em D/F# C(add9) D/F#

Then it took on a brand new meaning,

Em D/F# C(add9) G/B Bb6 D

Yeah, it was strong and it was true, knew what I had to do.

G D/F#

Found a ring, hit my knees,

Em

Couldn't talk, couldn't breathe,

C D

My heart had me all choked up.

G D/F#

Said "I do," as we cried, wedding bells,

Em D C

Waved goodbye, the whole church knew it was

D/F# G

Lo - ve.

G D/F# Em C D G D/F# Em C D

INSTRUMENTAL

Em D/F# C(add9) D/F#

Then it took on a brand new meaning,

Em D/F# C(add9) G/B Bb6 D

When the doctor said "It's time to watch your miracle arrive."

A E/Ab

Thank the Lord, cut the cord.

F#m

Take her home, help her grow.

E D Esus A E/Ab F#m

And complete the circle of lo - ve.

D E A E/Ab F#m

Lo - ve.

D E A E/Ab F#m D E (to fade)

That's the circle of lo - ve.
