The loving kind Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][Em][A][D]

[Verse 1]
They were the [D]loving kind
She was black and [G]he was white
In Virginia [A]nineteen fifty- eight
They found love [D]amongst the hate

[Verse 2]
Well the law said [D]they could not wed
They married [G]anyway
The sheriff put them [A]both in jail
Separated 'till they [D]made their [A]bail

[Verse 3]
[D]They changed the heart of a nat[G]ion
with their [D]wedding vows
From the highest [A]court in the land
Their union would law[D]fully stand
Simply Mildred and [G]Richard
That's how they'll be re[D]membered
They proved that [A]love is truly blind
They were the [D]loving kind.

[Interlude 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
The Lovings lived [D]a quiet life
In their Vir[G]ginia home
and while the case worked it's
[A]way through the courts
They brought three chil
[D]dren to this world
Richard died in seventy- five
Mildred kept their [G]love alive
'Till the spring of two [A]thousand- eight
Fifty years bey[D]ond the hate

[Verse 5]
They changed the heart of a [G]nation
with their [D]wedding vows
From the highest [A]court in the land
Their union would law[D]fully stand
Simply Mildred and [G]Richard
That's how they'd be re[D]membered
They proved that [A]love is truly blind
They were the [D]loving kind
