A D
If there was no word for love now
Dm A#
We'd see how strong it really is
D# A
We could find out what it looks like
D G G/F#
Or if it ever did exist
A D
'Cause every time you said you loved me
Dm A#
Seems like the point escaped us both
D# A
And the current interrupted
D G G/F#
The moment that you spoke
F# Bm
Now there's a loophole in the theory
D7 G/F#
That I cannot figure out
G/F# D
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
A/C# A D/A
Then you'd be here with me now
REPEAT INTRO
It's a loneliness perfected
It's how to laugh when you should cry
The side effects of broken promise
Becomes a way of getting by
So the next time that you see me
And our exchange feels somehow cheap
Know that I feel every word you're saying
But from just a few steps out of reach
F# Bm
Where the view is a little hazy
D7 G/F#
And the noise a little loud
G/F# D/A
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
A/C# A A F# Bm E
Well then you'd be here with me now
G/F# D/A
If love was what they said it would be
A/C# A D/A
Then you'd be here with me now
REPEAT INTRO THROUGH OUTRO
END!!!
