Roy Orbison - The Way Is Love
[Intro]
F#m     A7
E
[Verse 1]
   E                               Emaj7
If I could be the one to write the rules
    E7                                      A
I'd write the whole wide world to come back to the school
          E                         F#m
Where you learn how to lay down the law
                         B7
Without listening to the fools
[Verse 2]
          E                       Emaj7
Who would break just to break and take just to take
      E7                  A
But together we can find another way
Am              E
Like I feel for you
                  B7
A feeling that is true
          E
The way is love
[Verse 3]
E                                   Emaj7
Life is so much better whenever the way is love
E7                           A
Every song's a good song and everyone
    Am
Can sing along
    F#m    B
The way is love
                                       E
Oh there's understood song, the way is love
[Verse 4]
    E           Emaj7     E
The way is love,     it's in the air tonight
    A                  Am           E
The way our love makes everything alright
                F#m  B           E
That the way is love, the way is love
[Verse 5]
E            Emaj7              A
I believe in you and me, we can see
    Am            E
The way is love tonight
    E                   E7                      A
And who knows baby, the tools can be learned by everyone
Am
 What we do
    E                     A
The right, the wrong, the hard
F#m                                                   B           E
Hardest lesson, become a part of every love and vision, the way is love
[Verse 6]
    E
The way is love (the way is love)
    Emaj7
The way love is a night (the way is love)
    A                 Am           E
The way of love makes everything alright
    F#m            B                  E
And you and I grow part of the way of love
