If there was no word for love now
Em C
We'd see how strong it really is
F B
We could find out what it looks like
E A A/G#
Or if it ever did exist
B E
'Cause every time you said you loved me
Em C
Seems like the point escaped us both
F B
And the current interrupted
E A A/G#
The moment that you spoke
G# C#m
Now there's a loophole in the theory
E7 A/G#
That I cannot figure out
A/G# E
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
B/D# B E/B
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
G# C#m
Where the view is a little hazy
E7 A/G#
And the noise a little loud
A/G# E/B
'Cause if love was what they said it would be
B/D# B B G# C#m F#
Well then you'd be here with me now
A/G# E/B
If love was what they said it would be
B/D# B E/B
Then you'd be here with me now
REPEAT INTRO THROUGH OUTRO
END!!!
