Note: At some points I feel C and Am are interchangable and work just as well. It's up to you.
Capo 1
Intro
GAGCGDGAm
Found a way
GC
To break away
G
From the one
D
You say that you love
GAm
Now you cry out your eyes
GCG
Day and night you set free
D
The one that you love
C
And it's true
D
I don't remember you
EmD
But I'd believe if you say that we met
C
I get confused
D
Nights I've been wondering
EmD
I thought I was already dead
Am
But man I loved
D
Yeah I loved
Em
When I loved
G
It was love
Am
It was love
D
Or at least
G
The closest I've come
GAGCGCGAGGAm
And the coffee, the cream
GC
The blood in my dreams
G
Are the ones
D
That you used to know
GAm
And the gas the plane
GC
The interstate
G
Live the ones
D
You don't have to know
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_elected/it_was_love_crd.html )
C
And I regret
D
This sad and awful truth
EmD
But my mouth it'll get away from me
CD
You, I just put up with you,
EmD
Kid, I stayed cause you wouldn't leave
Am
Remember love?
D
Oh, love
Em
When we loved
G
It was love
Am
It was love
DG
Or at least, as close as I've come
GCGAGCD
And maybe Joan was running all alone
EmG
And there is a shortcut, home
Am
Putting a gun to your brain
DG
Man, to take all that you got
CGAGCD
And the truth, that I was just scared for you,
EmD
But for me that's the way that it comes
CD
You'd gotten used to me and my awful tongue
EmD
But god, didn't we have some fun?
Am
When we made love
D
In the van
EmG
And I drove with your hand on my lap
AmD
And when San Diego got too unkind
EmG
We just picked up and left em behind
Am
And we had some love
D
And some hope
EmG
A full tank of gas and a wide open road
Am
It was love
D
To us
Em
It was all that we had
Am
And there's days
D
You just break
Em
The best thing you have
C
But I still call it love
DG
For now, it's the closest I've come.
