Couldn't Love Have Picked A Better Place to Die

A                 A7      D                 Bm
Of all the people in this world, why you and I
E                Bm      E                                A
With lovers here and everywhere we don't care enough to try
    D6       A       A7                 D                  B7
Why couldn't all the hurt we're feeling now have passed us by
         E                                  A
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

And of all the hearts in all the world, why yours and mine
There's so many places love could die, we must leave the earth for a time
Oh, but it's in our hearts and it's in our bed and it's even in your eyes
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?

E                                                  A
Somewhere out there there's lovers who want to be free
             B                                    Bm               E
Why couldn't love have died with them instead of here with you and me
             D6       A        A7                   D                 B7
Oh, but it's dead and gone and all these tears won't bring it back to life
         E                                                 A
Couldn't love have picked a better place to die?
