Intro:  D   Em   C   Gx2
A shooting sDtar tumbles doCwnG  
It's fClame cannot enGdure
A scarlet roDse withers bCrownG  
To loCse it's fragrant lDure
The moAmon illuminates the night
To vaGnish at the dawn
Oh but loCve, loGve goeDs on
 D   Em   C   Gx2
Fortunes fDail and diCsappearG  
Like caCstles in the sGand
And power spoDils and causes fCearG  
But yiCelds to stronger haDnds
FAmame lasts for a moment
Then in a momGent, it is gone
Oh but lCove, love goes oGn
Oh, bEmeauty fades and pasGsion wanes
And fCaces show their yeDars
Oh, deEmath steals a lover's toGuch away
But tiCme dries up the teaDrs
AmTunes are soon forgotten
And siGngers lose their soD7ng
BuCt love goes Don
A bDaby boy, a starClit nightG  
Kings Con bended knGee
Healing haDnds bringing siCghtG  
Then toCrtured on a trGee
A woman Amsings, rejoicing
"He is rGisen, he is gone"
BecausCe love, Glove goes Con
Oh loCve, oh loGve gEmoes oCn

D Em C G

Intro: x2

D C G

A shooting star tumbles down

C G

It's flame cannot endure

D C G

A scarlet rose withers brown

C D

To lose it's fragrant lure

The moon illuminates the night

To vanish at the dawn

C G D

Oh but love, love goes on

D Em C G

D C G

Fortunes fail and disappear

C G

Like castles in the sand

D C G

And power spoils and causes fear

C D

But yields to stronger hands

Fame lasts for a moment

Then in a moment, it is gone

C G

Oh but love, love goes on

Em G

Oh, beauty fades and passion wanes

C D

And faces show their years

Em G

Oh, death steals a lover's touch away

C D

But time dries up the tears

Tunes are soon forgotten

G D7

And singers lose their song

C D

But love goes on

D C G

A baby boy, a starlit night

C G

Kings on bended knee

D C G

Healing hands bringing sight

C G

Then tortured on a tree

A woman sings, rejoicing

"He is risen, he is gone"

C G C

Because love, love goes on

C G Em C

Oh love, oh love goes on
