Topic: It's Love That You Lose
So I thought I would start the new year off with a song I wrote this morning.
It's about a love that ended because of chasing dreams.
Sorry that I used the same chords for the chorus as I did with the verses - is that ok to do ? It just sounded good tome and I'm not a good enough musician to come with something else 
Comments appreciated. !
Bahaha - changed my mind, changed the title and switched up a verse and chorus.... just seemed better after playing it

It's Love That You Lose By Jim Kenyon
verse 1
.
[D]Sitting by the [C]campfire, as my [G]guitar weeps so [D] sad
[D]As I’m dreaming of the[C] soft look that [G]her eyes once[D] had
[D] start singing a [C]love poem, that I [G]once knew by[D] heart
[D]but the meanings gone [C] missing, since [G] we’ve been a[D]part
verse 2
.
[D]I recall every [C] memory and I [G] still call out her[D] name
[D] you know my heart’s [C]aching, won’t [G]never be the [D]same
[D]I should leave love to [C]others, that [G]can plant better [D]roots
[D] someone that can[C] stay put, and wash [G] the mud off their [D]boots
.
Chorus
.
[D]someday we ‘ll get [C]together, talk of [G]what we used to [D]be
[D]how much that I [C]loved her, and how [G]much she loved [D]me
[D]but decisions we [C]made, and the lives [G]that we did [D]choose
[D] chasing different [C]dreams, knowing it’s [G] love that we [D] lose
verse 3
.
[D]It could have been [C]so different I [G] guess I’ll never [D]know
[D] I should’ve known [C] better, than to [G]ever let her [D]go
[D] Oh those heartstrings [C]and feelings, so[G] hard to for[D]get
[D] Because lovin' her [C] is the one thing [G] I'll never re[D]gret.
.
Chorus
.
[D]someday we ‘ll get [C]together, talk of [G]what we used to [D]be
[D]how much that I [C]loved her, and how [G]much she loved [D]me
[D]but decisions we [C]made, and the lives [G]that we did [D]choose
[D] chasing different [C]dreams, knowing it’s [G] love that we [D] lose
[D] chasing different [C]dreams, knowing it’s [G] love that we [D] lose
[D] chasing different [C]dreams, knowing it’s [G] love that we [D] lose
yeah it's [C]hardknowing it’s [G] love that we [D] lose
The price of anything, is the amount of life you exchange for it. - H.D. Thoreau
Your vision is not limited by what your eye can see, but what your mind can imagine.
Make your life count, and the world will be a better place because you tried.
"Use the talents you possess, for the woods would be very silent if no birds sang except only the the best." - Henry Van Dyke
