VERSE:
 E      A
Well I asked her why she cried
              E
What she was doing with her life
         F#m
She said “I could marry a sailor
              D               E
I think that I'd make a good wife
              A
But he would leave for months at sea
                  E
Leaving only the baby and me
     F#m                                      D  E
And I do not think that I could stay faithful"


BREAK:
             Bm
And I could leave the sound for good
                    F#m
Bringing only some photos and a book
          D                                  E Eadd9 E
But I'm pretty sure my legs would grow weary
          Bm
Then she asked how bout me
              F#m
I said “well darling let me see
        D                                      E Eadd9 E
I hear wedding bells and see kisses from lovers



VERSE:
        A
Those lovers or so it seems
         E
They appear to be you and me
       F#m                                     D E
But I could be wrong cause my mind's awful lazy



VERSE:
             A
And now I'm seeing something else
         E
And it's me I'm by myself
       F#m                                    D E
And I appear to be older and I'm awful lonely


BREAK:
         Bm
And as I cry I ask God why
              F#m
How could you let my poor wife die?”
       D
And I told her not to cry
    E
To wipe her eyes


INSTRUMENTAL:  D  A   D  A   Bm  C#m  D  E


CHORUS:
         A
Well if love is all you have
           E
Well then baby that's not bad
        F#m
And if love is all you got
               D            E
Then that's a hell of a lot


CHORUS:
         A
Well if love is all you have
           E
Well then baby that's not bad
        F#m
And if love is all you got
               D            E
Then that's a hell of a lot


CHORUS:
         A
Well if love is all you have
           E
Well then baby that's not bad
       F#m
And if love is all you got
               D           E
Then that's a hell of a lot


CHORUS:
         A
Well if love is all you have
           E
Well then baby that's not bad
        F#m
And if love is all you got
               D             E
Then that's a hell of a lot


CHORUS:
         A

           E
Well then baby that's not bad
        F#m
And if love is all you got
               D
Then that's a hell of a lot
 E         A
Hell of a lot
