If You Want Love Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][G][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[Am]I just need some time,
I'm tryna think straight
[G]I just need a moment in my own space
[C]Ask me how I'm doin', I'll say, "okay"
[F]Yeah, but ain't that what we all say?
[Am]Sometimes I think back to the old days
[G]In the pointless conversations
with the old me
[C]Yeah, back when my momma
used to hold me
[F]I wish somebody woulda told me

[Chorus 1]
If you want [Am]love,
you gon' have to go through the [G]pain
If you want [C]love,
you gon' have to learn how to [F]change
If you want [Am]trust,
you gon' have to give some [G]away
If you want [C]love, if you want [F]love

[Verse 2]
[Am]Yeah, as a kid I used to think life
[G]Is moving so slow, I watch it go by[C]
Look out the window on my bus ride
[F]I thought the world was so small,
through my closed eyes
[Am]I've always tried to control thing[G]s
In the end that's what controls [C]me
Maybe that's why I'm controllin'
[F]I wish somebody woulda told me

[Chorus 2]
If you want [Am]love,
you gon' have to go through the [G]pain
If you want [C]love,
you gon' have to learn how to [F]change
If you want [Am]trust,
you gon' have to give some [G]away
If you want [C]love, if you want [F]love

[Bridge 1]
The [Am]older I get, I feel like
I'm always tryna save time
[G]Talkin' to the voices in my head,
they make me think twice
[C]Tellin' me it doesn't mean it's wrong
because it feels [F]right
I'm [Am]scared that one day I wake up
and wonder where the time go
[G]Talk about the past
like it's the present while I rock slow
[C]I'll sit in the living room
and laugh with kids of my [F]own
And tell 'em

[Chorus 3]
If you want [Am]love,
you gon' have to go through the [G]pain
If you want [C]love,
you gon' have to learn how to change
[F]I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want [Am]trust,
you gon' have to give some away
[G]You gon' have to give
If you want [C]love, if you want love
If you want [F]love, if you want love

[Outro 1]
[Am][G][C][F]
