verse 1: D A7 Some say love, it is a river G A7 D That drowns the tender reed A7 Some say love, it is a razor G A7 D That leaves your soul to bleed Dmaj7 G Some say love, it is a hunger A7sus4 A7 An endless aching need D A7 I say love, it is a flower G A7 D And you its only seed
verse 2: D A7 It's the heart afraid of breaking G A7 D That ne- ver learns to dance D A7 It's the dream afraid of waking G A7 D That never takes the chance Dmaj7 G It's the one who won't be taken G A7sus4 A7 Who can-not seem to give D A7 And the soul afraid of dyin' G A7 D That never learns to live verse 3: D A7 When the night has been too lonely G A7 D And the road has been too long D A7 And you think that love is only G A7 D For the lucky and the strong Dmaj7 G Just remember in the winter G A7sus4 A7 Far beneath the bitter snows D A7 Lies the seed that with the sun's love G A7 D In the spring becomes the rose
