I have seen snow that fell in May
A B E
And I have seen rain on cloudless days

Somethings are always bound to change
A B E
There ain't no ash will burn
[Chorus]
A B E
Love is a precious thing I'm told
A B E
It burns just like West Virginia coal
A B C#m
But when the fire dies down it's cold
A B E
There ain't no ash will burn

A B E
There ain't no ash will burn
[Chorus]
A B E
Love is a precious thing I'm told
