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

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

We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light

And if we all learn to love it would be just right
[Chorus 2]

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