LOVE (by John Wills & Bob Wills)
--------------------------------------
I had to learn this song to back a lady up for a contest.
To my surprise and delight it was actually quite harmonically sophisticated.
Not the three chord wonder that I always hear people play at all!
D A7#5 D7 G G Abdim
As I look at the letters that you wrote to me
D Bm7 E6 Eaug Asus9
It's you that I am thinking of
D A7#5 D7 G G Abdim
As I read the lines that to me were so dear
D F#m7 Fm7 Em7 A7 D G D
I remember our faded love
D A7#5 D7 G
I miss you, darling, more and more every day
D D E7 A7
As heaven would miss the stars above
D A7#5 D7 G Abdim
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
D F#m7 Fm7 Em7 A7 D
And remember our faded love
D A7 D - G D
[instrumental]
As I think of the past and all the pleasures we had
As I watched the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
I miss you, darling, more and more every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded lov
