Meat Loaf - What About Love
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO:  C   Am   C   Am   G   F  
There's a Chole in the sky tonight
There's a moon-drift to far from Amsight
I would Gadd4search through this empty darkness
To see your Fface in the morning light
We've been Clost in a sea of confusion
Got caught Amup in a selfish illusion
But Gadd4make no mistake, I will bend till I break
Don't let Ffate make the choice for us
CHORUS:
What about Clove that lasts forGever?
What about Amtime to see it Fthrough?
If you don't Cgive, you just don't Gget it
What about Amme?
What about Fyou?
What about Clove?
FOnce in a Clifetime you'll Gfind someone Amheaven Gsent for Fyou
For a Clifetime you'll Gfeel there's a Emreason to beFlieve
In a Glove that's meant to Cbe
It feels like we've fallen from grace
Given Amup on the higher things
'Cause I Gadd4know deep inside if we search we will find
FSomething to give us wings
CHORUS:
What about Clove that lasts forGever?
What about Amtime to see it Fthrough?
If you don't Cgive, you just don't Gget it
What about Amme?
What about Fyou?
What about Amlove____?
I can't go on another day
FComing home and seeing you Gcrying (crying)
AmCan't stand another night
Of Ftelling you I'm tired, when I'm CdyGing (dying)
ForAmever means nothing
To Flive without you
Is Amreaching for something
That Fnever comes through
ToAmgether is heaven
AFpart we're in hell
The Ctime for forgiveness is now___G___
EbOooh Bboooh
FOnce in a Clifetime you'll Gfind
AmSomeone to Gshare your Fdreams
For a Clifetime our Glove
Will Emalways set us Ffree
ForGever we'll beClieve
INSTRUMENTAL: Lead Break 
CI can't forget the feeling, of your Gadd4sweat upon my skin
And the Amtremble of your body, on the Fday you let me in
That happens Conce, only Gadd4once in a lifetiFme
On a Csummer night's surrender, with Gadd4nothing to lose
You were Amscared and so was I, when I Fgave myself to you
It happens Conce, only Gadd4once in a liFfetime
CHORUS:
What about Clove that lasts forGever?
What about Amtime to see it Fthrough?
If you don't Cgive, you just don't Gget it
What about Amme?
What about Fyou?
CHORUS:
What about Clove that won't say Gnever?
When you don't Amknow what you can Fdo
If you don't Clive you'll just reGgret it
What about Amme?
What about Fyou?
What about Clove?

Meat Loaf - What About Love

CAPO: 3rd Fret

C Am C Am G F

INTRO:

There's a hole in the sky tonight

There's a moon-drift to far from sight

Gadd4

I would search through this empty darkness

To see your face in the morning light

We've been lost in a sea of confusion

Got caught up in a selfish illusion

Gadd4

But make no mistake, I will bend till I break

Don't let fate make the choice for us

CHORUS:

C G

What about love that lasts forever?

Am F

What about time to see it through?

C G

If you don't give, you just don't get it

What about me?

What about you?

What about love?

F C G Am G F

Once in a lifetime you'll find someone heaven sent for you

C G Em F

For a lifetime you'll feel there's a reason to believe

G C

In a love that's meant to be

It feels like we've fallen from grace

Given up on the higher things

Gadd4

'Cause I know deep inside if we search we will find

Something to give us wings

CHORUS:

C G

What about love that lasts forever?

Am F

What about time to see it through?

C G

If you don't give, you just don't get it

What about me?

What about you?

What about love____?

I can't go on another day

F G

Coming home and seeing you crying (crying)

Can't stand another night

F C G

Of telling you I'm tired, when I'm dying (dying)

Forever means nothing

To live without you

Is reaching for something

That never comes through

Together is heaven

Apart we're in hell

C G

The time for forgiveness is now______

Eb Bb

Oooh oooh

Once in a lifetime you'll find

Will always set us free

Forever we'll believe

INSTRUMENTAL: Lead Break

C Gadd4

I can't forget the feeling, of your sweat upon my skin

Am F

And the tremble of your body, on the day you let me in

C Gadd4 F

That happens once, only once in a lifetime

C Gadd4

On a summer night's surrender, with nothing to lose

Am F

You were scared and so was I, when I gave myself to you

C Gadd4 F

It happens once, only once in a lifetime

CHORUS:

C G

What about love that lasts forever?

Am F

What about time to see it through?

C G

If you don't give, you just don't get it

What about me?

What about you?

CHORUS:

C G

What about love that won't say never?

Am F

When you don't know what you can do

If you don't live you'll just regret it

What about me?

What about you?

What about love?
