Love is a sweet thing
1. He was sitting on a
corner with a bottle of beer,
Bb G
and the same
shopping cart he'd been pushing for years.
C Am
A big smile on his face like the first day
of spring,
Bb G
all the people
looked the other way, but they heard him sing.
C - Am Em - G
And he sang :
"Lo...ve, love is a sweet thing ! "
C - Am Em - G
He sang :
"Lo...ve, love is a sweet thing ! "
2. She shot out of
Texas like a bullet from a gun,
Bb G
with a van full of hippies and a band on the run.
C Am
She didn't want to be famous,
she just wanted to play,
Bb G
In old dive bars and pool halls she got
upon stage.
C - Am Em - G
And she sang :
"Lo...ve, love is a sweet thing ! "
C - Am Em - G
She sang :
"Lo...ve, love is a sweet thing ! "
It’s everywhere you look, if you look hard
enough,
C
it's really not
hard to see.

Yeah, once you put your arms around it,
Fm
you can never get
too much,
G G7 + C - Am - Em

love is a sweet,
sweet thing.
It's in the smile of a stranger, in the
eyes of a child,

on the corner of a
crowded street.

It's everywhere around us, it's always growing
wild,
