| Huuh | Laah A Thing called | Love |

| Six-foot- | six, he stood on the ground, |
| He weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds, |
| F | G | C | |
| But I saw that | giant of a man brought | down to his knees by | love. |
| C | |
| He was the kind of a man that would gamble on luck, |
| Look you in the eye and never back up, |
| F | G | C | |
| But I saw him | cryin' like a little whipped | pup' because of | love. |
| C | F | |
| You can't see it with your eyes; hold it in your | hand; |
| Em | Am | |
| But like the | wind that covers our | land; |
| F | G | |
| Strong enough to | rule the heart of any man, This thing called | love. |
| C | F | |
| It can lift you | up; never let you | down; |
| Em | Am | |
| Take your | world and turn it all | around. |
| C | G | C | |
| Ever since | time nothing's ever been | found, That's stronger than | love. |
| Bb | F | G | |
| Huuh | Laah A Thing called | Love |
| Most men are like me, they struggle in doubt, |
| They trouble their minds, they in and they out, |
| Too busy with livin' to worry about a little word like love. |
| But when I see a mother's tenderness, |
| As she holds her young close to her breast, |
| Then I thank God that the world's been blessed, With a thing called love. |
| You can't see it with your eyes... |
| Ever since time nothing's ever been found, |
| That's stronger than love... |
