When Love Comes To Town

	  		When Love Comes to Town 
By U2 and BB King  

verse 1 
E                               A 
I was a sailor, I was lost at sea 
E                   A 
I was under the waves 
E                    A 
Before love rescued me 
E                                       A 
I was a fighter, I could turn on a thread 
E (Mute) 
Now I stand accused of the things I've said 


A 
Love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train 
E                       E 
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that flame 
E                  E 
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down 
(Mute) 
But I did what I did before love came to town 

verse 2 

I used to make love under a red sunset 
I was making promises I was soon to forget 
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown 
But I left her standing before love came to town 

verse 3 

I ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream 
The notes were turning blue, I was dazing in a dream 
As the music played I saw my life turn around 
That was the day before love came to town 

Chorus 

verse 4 
I was there when they crucified my Lord 
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword 
I threw the dice when they pierced his side 
But I've seen love conquer the great divide 

Chorus
