Love Is A Minor Key

	  		
INTRO 
  drum fill, two bars 
G Bm/F# Em C 
G Bm/F# Em C 

G 
Love is like a melody 
   Bm/F# 
It taunts my every memory 
    Em                       C 
The harmony is discern under spell 

    G 
The orchestra is tuning up 
   Bm/F#                     
As doors are swung and swiftly shut 
  Em                              C 
I think about you more than I can bear 

G 
Love is like a minor key 
     Bm/F# 
That changes weeping willow tree 
   Em                                C 
It hooks its claws until the blood is drawn 
    G 
The audience is spilling out 
  Bm/F# 
I slip into the busy crowd 
    Em                                C 
But still your face remains after I'm gone 

D 
 I could sleep until the summertime 
G 
 Maybe then I'd get the peace of mind 
C6                             G 
 Cut the wires of my telephone line 
D 
 But even in the dead of night 
G 
 I toss and turn like a little child 
C6                          D 
 A heavy heart can never be satisfied 

G 
Love is like a melody 
  Bm/F# 
A fever to the remedy 
  Em                          C 
I see you like a silent movie star 
   G 
If you could step out of the screen 
    Bm/F# 
And wake me from the wretched dream 
    Em                        C 
But I can only watch you from afar 

D 
 I could sleep until the summertime 
G 
 Maybe then I'd get the peace of mind 
C6                             G 
 Cut the wires of my telephone line 
D 
 But even in the dead of night 
G 
 I toss and turn like a little child 
C6                          D7 
 A heavy heart can never be satisfied 

G 
Love is a melody 
   D 
It may ruin me 
  Bm 
A deafening symphony 
     CM7 
That pulls at the seams 
G 
Trapped in the rhapsody 
     D 
That plays the wrong notes 
     Bm 
It's killing me slowly 
   CM7 
So please let me go 
Em G6/D 
             C6 
Don't let me go 
              Em G6/D 
Please let me go 
             C6 
Don't let me go 

G 
Love is like a minor key 
    Bm/F# 
The widow in the cemetery 
      Em                              C 
Who's make-up leaves a trail upon the ground 
  G 
I thought I saw our name in lights 
    Bm/F# 
But that was in a former life 
    Em                         C 
The song I sing is never sung aloud 
    G/D 
And love is just a melody 
    D7                            G 
And you will never hear me make a sound 
G
