Love Is Everything

G      D
Maybe it was to learn how to love
G               E
Maybe it was to learn how to leave
G                       D        
Or maybe it was for the games 
     E
that we played
G               D
Maybe it was to learn how to choose
 G              E
Maybe it was to learn how to lose
G                   D            
Or maybe it was for love that we 
E
made


[Chorus 1]
A        D          A           
Love was everything they said it
       D     E
 would be
A         D                 E
Love made sweet and sad the same
A           D              A    
But love forgot to make me too 
        D
blind to see
Bm                A               Bm
You're chickening out aren't you?
You're bangin' on the beach like an 
A            Bm7
old tin drum

I can't wait for you to make
          A
The whole kingdom come
   E       A
So I'm leaving

G               D
Maybe it was to learn how to fight
G               E
Maybe it was to lessen our pride
G                  D        E
Or maybe it's just nature's way
G                 D
Maybe it was to learn how to laugh
G               E
Maybe it was to learn to cry
 G                      D         
Or maybe it was for the love that 
   E
we made


[Chorus 1]
A        D                A     
Love was everything they said it
       D   E
 would be
A         D                 E
Love made sweet and sad the same
A           D              A    
And love forgot to make me too 
        D
blind to see
Bm                A               Bm
You're chickening out aren't you?
You're bangin' on the beach like an 
A            Bm7
old tin drum

I can't wait for you to make
          A
The whole kingdom come
   E
So I'm leaving


[Bridge]
D               A
First I turn to you
            Bm
Then I turn away
              A
So you try to hurt me back
                       D
Oh it breaks your body down
              A
So you try to love bigger
       Bm7
Better still
      E7           E    E7
But it's too late


[Chorus 2]
   A      D             
So take a lesson from the 
  A               D       E
strangeness you feel
A               D       E
And know you'll never be the same
    A       D                A   
And find it in your heart to 
           D
kneel down and say
Bm        A               Bm
I gave my love didn't I?
              A       Bm7
And I gave it big sometimes
                    A
And I gave it in my own sweet time
        E    A
I'm just leaving
        D  E A
I'm just lea-ving
