It Was Love Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Elected
Note: At some points I feel C and Am are interchangable and work just as well. It's up to you.

Capo 1

Intro
F Dm F F F G


F       Dm
Found a way 
   F     F
To break away
         F
                 G
You say that you love
        F            Dm
Now you cry out your eyes
F       F             F
Day and night you set free
                 G
The one that you love

         F
And it's true
        G
I don't remember you 
        Am                         G
But I'd believe if you say that we met
      F
I get confused
                 G
Nights I've been wondering
  Am                    G
I thought I was already dead


            Dm
But man I loved
       G 
Yeah I loved
        Am
When I loved
       F
It was love
       Dm
It was love
      G
Or at least
                 F
The closest I've come


F Dm F F F F F Dm F


        F           Dm
And the coffee, the cream
    F           F
The blood in my dreams
        F
Are the ones
                 G
That you used to know
        F       Dm        
And the gas the plane 
    F     F
The interstate
         F
Live the ones
                  G
You don't have to know

       F
And I regret
             G
This sad and awful truth
       Am                        G
But my mouth it'll get away from me
F               G    
You, I just put up with you,
       Am                        G
Kid, I stayed cause you wouldn't leave

         Dm
Remember love?
    G
Oh, love
        Am
When we loved
       F
It was love
       Dm
It was love
      G                       F
Or at least, as close as I've come


F F F Dm F


    F             G
And maybe Joan was running all alone
    Am                   F
And there is a shortcut, home
          Dm
Putting a gun to your brain
        G                 F
Man, to take all that you got


F F Dm F


        F                      G
And the truth, that I was just scared for you,
        Am                        G
But for me that's the way that it comes
             F                 G      
You'd gotten used to me and my awful tongue
    Am                       G
But god, didn't we have some fun?


             Dm
When we made love
       G
In the van
      Am                         F
And I drove with your hand on my lap
             Dm            G
And when San Diego got too unkind
        Am                      F
We just picked up and left em behind
                Dm
And we had some love
         G
And some hope
               Am                  F
A full tank of gas and a wide open road
       Dm
It was love
   G
To us
                   Am
It was all that we had
            Dm
And there's days
         G
You just break
                   Am
The best thing you have
                    F
But I still call it love
    G                          F
For now, it's the closest I've come.

F F F Dm F
