[CHORUS 1] [Chords within brackets only require one stroke]
D A
Some say love, it is a river
G ( A ) D
And that it drowns the tender reed
A
And some say love, it's like a razor
G ( A ) D
And that it leaves your soul to bleed.
[VERSE 1]
F#m Bm
Some say love, it is a hunger
G D ( A )
An endless aching need
D A
I say love, it is a flower
G ( A ) D
And you, it's only seed.
[RIFF]
[CHORUS 2]
D A
It's the heart afraid of breaking
G ( A ) D
That never learns to dance
A
It's a dream afraid of waking
G ( A ) D
That never takes the chance
[VERSE 2]
F#m Bm
It's the one who won't be taken
G D ( A )
Who cannot seem to give
D A
And the soul afraid of dying
G ( A ) D
That never learns to live.
[RIFF]
[CHORUS 3]
D A
When the night has been too lonely
G ( A ) D
And the road has been too long
A
And you think that love is only
G ( A ) D
For the lucky and the strong
[VERSE 3]
F#m Bm
Just remember in the winter
G D ( A )
Far beneath the bitter snows
D A
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
G ( A ) D
In spring becomes the rose...
