[Verse 1]
Em D
Pullin' out my big black book
Em D
Cause when I need a word defined that's where I look
Em D
So I move to the L's quick, fast, in a hurry
Em D
Threw on my specs, thought my vision was blurry
Em D
I looked again but to my dismay
Em D
It was black and white with no room for grey
Em D
Ya see, a big "V" stood beyond my word
Em D
And yo that's when it hit me, that luv is a verb
[Chorus 1]
Em G
Words come easy but don't mean much
Em G
When the words they're sayin' we can't put trust in
Em G
We're talkin' 'bout love in a different light
Em 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
Em
I don't care what they say
D

A
The word luv, luv is a verb
[Outro]

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

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