Love Is A Good Thing chords by Andrew Peterson

Verse 1:

C                                          G
It knocked me down, it dragged me out, it left me there for dead

 C                                            F
It took all the freedom I wanted and gave me something else instead

    C                                F
It blew my mind, it bled me dry, it hit me like a long goodbye

     Am                  G                        F
And nobody here knows better than I that it's a good thing

           A
Love is a good thing

Verse 2:

        C                                            G
It'll wake you up in the middle of the night, it'll take just a little too much

        C                                  F
It'll burn you like a cinder till you're tender to the touch

         C                                           F
It'll chase you down, and swallow you whole, it'll make your blood run hot and cold

          Am                       G                            F
Like a thief in the night it'll steal your soul, and that's a good thing

Love is a good thing


Chorus 2:

                   Dm                       C
It'll follow you down to the ruin of your great divide

  Bb
Open the wounds that you tried to hide

      F                           C
And there in the rubble of the heart that died

               Bb
You'll find a good thing

Cause it'll break your will, it'll change your mind

Loose all the chains of the ties that bind

           Am                          G                       F
If you're lucky you'll never make it out alive, and that's a good thing

Yes, it's worth every penny of the price you pay. It's a good thing

Love is a good thing --(Ooo, take cover,)
