C F
If there was no word for love now
Fm C#
We'd see how strong it really is
F# C
We could find out what it looks like
F A# A#/A
Or if it ever did exist
C F
'Cause every time you said you loved me
Fm C#
Seems like the point escaped us both
F# C
And the current interrupted
F A# A#/A
The moment that you spoke
A Dm
Now there's a loophole in the theory
F7 A#/A
That I cannot figure out
A#/A F
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
C/E C F/C
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
A Dm
Where the view is a little hazy
F7 A#/A
And the noise a little loud
A#/A F/C
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
C/E C C A Dm G
Well then you'd be here with me now
A#/A F/C
If love was what they said it would be
C/E C F/C
Then you'd be here with me now
REPEAT INTRO THROUGH OUTRO
END!!!
