Key: E
Introduction:
E F#m
I remember, when we met
E F#m
We were drinkin? whiskey, neat
E F#m
And you looked too long at me
E F#m
But I didn?t turn away
verse 1 - Part 2
E F#m
I saw a stranger in your eyes
E F#m
In the cold fluorescent light
E F#m
And you?ve got those dingo eyes
E F#m
And I couldn?t turn away.
Pre-Chorus
A F#m
Oh, I try, on the dance floor
C#m B
Yeah I try, to show you...
verse 2
E F#m
Burn your candles bright
E F#m
There?s a darkness in this night
E F#m
And maybe I?m just tired
E F#m
Of walking alone
Pre-Chorus
A F#m
So I try, up on this stage
C#m B
Yeah I try, to hold you...
E A
What is love? Without you?
C#m B
What is love? Without you?
verse 3 - Part 1
E F#m
Well, that silent river sings
E F#m
To me all her lonesome hymns
E F#m
And I take my seat against the bank
F#m E
Watching the stars, Jupiter and Mars..
verse 3 - Part 2
E F#m
And I didn?t mean to fall asleep
E F#m
But at the river time does not keep
E F#m
And I woke up in the front-row seat
E
The greatest show on Earth, for what it?s worth
F#m
An empty purse, is all you need
E F#m
A birth of bees, will I ever be, what you are to me, yeah
Pre-Chorus
A F#m
Oh I try, in my prayers
C#m B
Oh I try, I try to hear you
E A
What is love? Without you?
C#m B
What is love? Without you?
E A
Tell me, what is love? Without you?
C#m B
What is love?
