[C]
Some say love [Em] is a river
[Dm] that drowns [Eb] the [C] tender reed.
Some say love is [G] a razor [F] that [Em] leaves your [C] soul to bleed.
Some [Em] say love [Cm] is a hunger [F] and endless aching [G] need.
[C] It [G] is a flood, [Dm] [G] it's [C] only sea.
It's the heart, [G] afraid of breaking,
[F] that never [G] [C] learns to dance.
It's the dream, [G] afraid of waking, [F] that never [G] [C] takes the chance.
[Em] It's the one who [Am] won't be taken, [F] who can't [G] seem to give.
And [C] the soul, afraid [G] of death, [F] that never [G] [C] learns to live.
When the night's been [G] too lonely [F] and [G]
[C] life's been too long,
And you think that [G] you'll only live [F] for the lucky [G]
[C] and the strong.
[Em] Just remember
[Am] winter, [F] far beneath the [G] bitter snow,
[C] Lies the seed that [G] with the sun's love in [F] the spring
[G] becomes [C] the rose.
Some say love [Em] is a river
[Dm] that drowns [Eb] the [C] tender reed.
Some say love is [G] a razor [F] that [Em] leaves your [C] soul to bleed.
Some [Em] say love [Cm] is a hunger [F] and endless aching [G] need.
[C] It [G] is a flood, [Dm] [G] it's [C] only sea.
It's the heart, [G] afraid of breaking,
[F] that never [G] [C] learns to dance.
It's the dream, [G] afraid of waking, [F] that never [G] [C] takes the chance.
[Em] It's the one who [Am] won't be taken, [F] who can't [G] seem to give.
And [C] the soul, afraid [G] of death, [F] that never [G] [C] learns to live.
When the night's been [G] too lonely [F] and [G]
[C] life's been too long,
And you think that [G] you'll only live [F] for the lucky [G]
[C] and the strong.
[Em] Just remember
[Am] winter, [F] far beneath the [G] bitter snow,
[C] Lies the seed that [G] with the sun's love in [F] the spring
[G] becomes [C] the rose.
