CHORUS 1 [Chords within brackets only require one stroke]
D MajorD A augmentedA
Some say love, it is a river
G+G ( A augmentedA ) D MajorD
And that it drowns the tender reed
A augmentedA
And some say love, it's like a razor
G+G ( A augmentedA ) D MajorD
And that it leaves your soul to bleed.
VERSE 1
F# minorF#m B minorBm
Some say love, it is a hunger
G+G D MajorD ( A augmentedA )
An endless aching need
D MajorD A augmentedA
I say love, it is a flower
G+G ( A augmentedA ) D MajorD
And you, it's only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
G+G ( A augmentedA ) D MajorD
That never learns to dance

It's a dream afraid of waking

That never takes the chance
VERSE 2

That never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely

For the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snows

Lies the seed that with the sun's love
G+G ( A augmentedA ) D MajorD
In spring becomes the rose...
