[Verse 1]

[Verse 2]
[C]Once there were schoolyards with
[G]children at play
Once there was England,
and [C]one sunny [F]day
[C]One kinda woman for [G]one kinda man
How could I know I was [C]not in her plans

[Verse 3]
Say [Am]love, say [F]love
[C]When I was soarin' you [G]urged me to fly
When I was hungry you [C]fed me your [F]lines
[C]Led me to water, [G]you sang me your song
One day when I woke up I
[C]found you were gone
[G]Say love,

[Verse 4]
[Am]say love[F]
Say [Am]love, say [D]love
Nobody [C]told me,
[F]love is just [G]a four letter [C]word

[Verse 5]
[Am]L is for losin' th[F]e love that you crave
And [G]O is when it's over
and your [Am]heart can't explain
[F]V i[C]s for the victim,
the [G]victim of the crime and
[Am]E is every morning when you
[F]break down on time
So [C]you see my friend,
[F]love is just [G]a four letter word

[Verse 6]
[C]L- [F]O- I can[G]'t let[Am] go
[C]V- E- [F]fri[G]ends all say[Am] just let it be
[C]L- [F]O- [G]oo-[Am] oo
V- [C]E-[F][G]

[Verse 7]
[C]Forget your illusions,
[G]forget what they say
'Cause all your dreams of happiness
have [C]just blown [F]away
[C]Once in a lifetime [G]your spirit will fly
That's what she told me
'fore she [C]told me goodbye

[Verse 8]
[Am]Love, say [F]love
[Am]Love, say [F]love
So [C]you see my friend,
[F]love is just [G]a four letter word

[Verse 9]
[Am]L is for losers when fortu[F]ne turns blue
And [G]O is overcomin' what
you [Am]know to be [F]true
[C]V is for the vengeance that's
[G]left out in the rain and
[Am]E is each and every night
you [F]crumble in pain
So [C]you see my friend,
[F]love is just [G]a four letter word
So you [Am]see my friend
I say [F]"Stop, don't say it"
[C]So you see my friend,
[F]love is just [G]a four letter word
[C][F][G][Am]
