Verse 1:
C                      Am7
Dark pines the moonlit road,
F               G
Winter time the crunch of snow.
C                  Am7
I wonder will your smile show,
F                        G
That love is making it’s way back home.
C                   Am7
Love is making it’s way back home, (Ooh-ooh)
F                   G
Love is making it’s way back home, (Ooh-ooh)
C                   Am7                 F    G
Love is making it’s cold weary way back home.  (Ooh-ooh)


Verse 2:
C                     Am7
And when it’s finally reappeared,
F                 G
We won’t ask what it has seen.
C                    Am7
It won’t say and and we won’t care,
F                   G
Where it’s traveled in the in-between.
C                   Am7
Love is making it’s way back home,
F                   G
Love is making it’s way back home,
C                   Am                  F
Love is making it’s cold weary way back home,
   G       C
To you and me.
