I Was There

      G
I was there (I was there) I was there (I was there)
                      D            G
When love crashed and burned I was there

[Verse 1]
G
I was there when love came around with sweet warm kisses
      C                           G
I was there when it burned into desire
G
I was there when it ran into a raging river
                       D           G
And then turned into a runaway wildfire

[Chorus]

I was there (I was there) I was there (I was there)
     C          F     C     G
When love came around I was there
G
And one thing certain I did all the hurtin'
                D             G      G
At love's final curtain I was there

[Solo]
| G | G | G | G | G |

| D | G |

[Verse 2]
G
  I was there when love came in like a living tornado
          C                            G
And I was there when it blew out of control
G
I was there when something quickly turned into nothing
                         D                G
Just a hopeless helpless dream gone up in smoke

[Chorus]
G
I was there (I was there) I was there (I was there)
     C          F     C     G
When love came around I was there
G
And one thing certain I did all the hurtin'
                D             G      G
At love's final curtain I was there

[Chorus]
G
I was there (I was there) I was there (I was there)
     C          F     C     G
When love came around I was there
G
And one thing certain I did all the hurtin'
                D             G      G
At love's final curtain I was there

[Chorus]
G
I was there (I was there) I was there (I was there)
     C          F     C     G
When love came around I was there
G
And one thing certain I did all the hurtin'
                D             G
At love's final curtain I was there
