[Verse 1]
C#m B
Pullin' out my big black book
C#m B
Cause when I need a word defined that's where I look
C#m B
So I move to the L's quick, fast, in a hurry
C#m B
Threw on my specs, thought my vision was blurry
C#m B
I looked again but to my dismay
C#m B
It was black and white with no room for grey
C#m B
Ya see, a big "V" stood beyond my word
C#m B
And yo that's when it hit me, that luv is a verb
[Chorus 1]
C#m E
Words come easy but don't mean much
C#m E
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
C#m E
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
C#m E
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
F#
Hey, tell me haven't ya heard?
F#
Luv, is a serious word
A
Hey, I think it's time ya learned
C#m
I don't care what they say
B
I don't care care what ya heard
F#
The word luv, luv is a verb
[Outro]

[Verse 2]
C#m B
Thinkin' of a way to explain-o
C#m B
Cause ya' know when I'm flowin' like a bottle of Drain-o
C#m B
Simple and plain, L-O-V-F#
C#m B
Ain't all that junk that ya see on TV
C#m B
Put soaps on a rope cause they ain't worth copin' with
C#m B
It's a myth that there ain't no hope and
C#m B
Luv is enough if it's unconditionally
C#m B
Givin' now you're living out the Great Commission
[Chorus 1]
C#m E
Words come easy but don't mean much
C#m E
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in

And if we all learn to love it would be just right

[Verse 3]
C#m E
Back in the day there was a man
C#m E
Who stepped out of Heaven and he walked the land
C#m E
He delivered to the people an eternal choice
C#m E
With a heart full of luv and the truth in His voice
C#m E
Gave up His life so that we may live
C#m E
How much more luv could the Son of God give?
C#m E
Here is the example that we oughtta be matchin'
C#m E
Cause luv is a word that requires some action
[Chorus 1]
C#m E
Words come easy but don't mean much
C#m E
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
C#m E
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
C#m E
And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]
