[intro]

C(9)  C(9)     G    D/F#    Em7   Em7
  You find yourself falling down
     Am7          Am7           C                C          D   Dsus4  D  D(9)
Your hopes in the sky, but your heart like grape gum on the ground
        C(9)  C(9)   G   D/F#   Em7   Em7
And you       try to find yourself
         Am7             Am7            C          C         D   Dsus4  D  D(9)
In the abstractions of religion and the cruelty of everyone else
        C(9)  C(9)   G   D/F#   Em7   Em7
And you       wake up to realize
     Am7          Am7        C      C           D11  D11  D11  D11
Your standard of living somehow got stuck on survive

            G        D/F#     Em7  Em7   C(9)             C(9)       D     D
When you're standing in deep water,  and bailing yourself out with a straw
                G        D/F#     Em7  Em7           C(9)      C(9)       D   Dsus4
And when you're drowning in deep water, and you wake up making love to a wall
          G             D/F#      Em7        Em7
Well it's these little times that help to remind
     C       D       Em   Em   Em(9)   Em(9)
It's nothing without love

You realize your only friend
Has never been yourself, or anyone who cared in the end
That's when everything fades or falls away
'Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made

And when you're standing in deep water, and you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when you're drowning in deep water, and you wake up making love to a wall
Well it's these little times that help to remind
     C       D       G     D/F#  Em7   Em7
It's nothing without love, love, love
     C       D       Em(9)  Em(9)  Em(9)  Em(9)
It's nothing without love

Am            Am       C      C    Am    Am            G      G
  We've compromised our pride,       and sacrificed our health
Am          Am        C              C     Em7   Em7       D11     D11  D11  D11
  We must demand more not from each other,   but more from ourselves

'Cause when you're standing in deep water, and you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when you're drowning in deep water, and you wake up making love to a wall
Well it's these little times that help to remind
     C       D       G     D/F#  Em7   Em7
It's nothing without love, love, love
     C       C       D    D   G   D/F#  Em7  Em7
It's nothing without lo-ove
     C       D       Em   Em   Em(9)   Em(9)   G   G     C   C      Em7   Em7  Em7  Em7
It's nothing without love,                          love,     love, love

G       G       C     C       Em  Em  Em(9)  Em(9)
Nothing without love, without love                (repeat)
