Topic: A Song of Love
After a fairly low-energy time, I have finally written another song and posted it today on Soundcloud. I hope you enjoy it.
A SONG OF LOVE - © Marian Kerr, 2015
3/4 - waltz time
Intro: [F]/ [G] [G] [C] [C]/
(Tacet) There are [C] songs that soothe a [F] babe to sleep
And [G] songs that cause your [C] heart to weep
There are [C7] songs that lift you [F] high above
And [G] songs that tell a [C] tale of love
Chorus1:
But how can I [C7] sing a [F] love song when I [G] have a broken [C] heart?
How can I [C7] sing a [F] love song when [G] we're so far a-[C]part?
I wish I could find a love song to [G] tell you how much you [C] mean
Maybe I'll [C7] sing a [F] love song - but [G] only in my [C] dream
[C] Music has power to [F] touch (heal?) the soul
And [G] music can make the [C] wounded heart whole
Music can [C7] wash a-[F]way the pain
And [G] help you believe in [C] love again
Chorus1:
But how can I [C7] sing a [F] love song when I [G] have a broken [C] heart?
How can I [C7] sing a [F] love song when [G] we're so far a-[C]part?
I wish I could find a love song to [G] tell you how much you [C] mean
Maybe I'll [C7] sing a [F] love song - but [G] only in my [C] dream
Instrumental: (picking)
[C] [F] [G] [C] [C7] [F] [G] [C] [C]
Chorus 2: (picking)
One day you may [C7] hear my [F] love song
and [G] know it's meant for [C] you
Then you will [C7] know for-[F]ever [G] that my love is [C] true
Maybe you'll find a love song and [G] sing it just for [C] me
Then [C7] we can sing our [F] song of love in [G] two-part harmo-[C]ny
(soft downstrums)
... Then [G] we will sing together. . . in [G7] perfect harmo-[C]ny
I'm not sure whether to use the word 'touch' or 'heal' in the first line of the second verse. I wrote it as 'touch' but accidentally sang it as 'heal'.
