Gm                            Dm    Now both of us have known love before,
Gm                            Dm    To come on up promising, like the spring,
                   D#just walk on out the door
                                A#Our hearts are strong and our hearts are kind
D#                          D#/Fwell, let me tell you exactly what is on my mind.
