Love Minus Zero/No Limit

	  		D                         A G 
My love, she speaks like silence 
                     D     A 
Without ideals or violence. 
 G                               D 
She doesn't have to say she's faithful 
            Em7                  A A6 A7 
Yet she's true like ice, like fire. 
  D                A G 
People carry roses 
                           D  A 
And make promises by the hour. 
 G                            D 
My love, she laughs like the flowers 
    Em      A7      D 
Valentines can't buy her. 

 D                           A G 
In dime stores and bus stations 
                     D     A 
People talk of situations, 
 G                               D 
Read books, repeat quotations, 
            Em7               A A6 A7 
Draw conclusions on the wall. 
  D                A G 
Some speak of the future; 
                           D  A 
My love, she speaks softly. 
 G                            D 
She knows there's no success like failure 
    Em      A7      D 
And that failure's no success at all. 

     D                           A G 
The cloak and dagger dangles, 
                     D     A 
Madams light the candles. 
 G                               D 
In ceremonies of the horseman 
            Em7                      A A6 A7 
Even the pawn must hold a grudge. 
  D                A G 
Statues made of match sticks 
                           D  A 
Crumble into one another. 
 G                            D 
My love winks, she does not bother. 
    Em      A7      D 
She knows too much to argue or to judge. 

     D                           A G 
The bridge at midnight trembles, 
                     D     A 
The country doctor rambles, 
 G                               D 
Bankers' nieces seek perfection, 
            Em7                                A A6 A7 
Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring. 
  D                A G 
The wind howls like a hammer, 
                                       D    A 
The night wind blows cold and rainy. 
 G                            D 
My love, she's like some raven 
    Em      A7      D 
At my window with a broken wing.
