Verse 1
[A] [F#m]
Perhaps love is like a resting place
[Bm] [E]
A shelter from the storm
[A] [F#m]
It exists to give you comfort
[Bm] [E]
It is there to keep you warm
[C#m] [F#m]
And in those times of trouble
[D] [E]
When you are most alone
[Bm] [E] [A] [E]
The memory of love will bring you home
Verse 2
[A] [F#m]
Perhaps love is like a window
[Bm] [E]
Perhaps an open door
[A] [F#m]
It invites you to come closer
[Bm] [E]
It wants to show you more
[C#m] [F#m]
And even if you lose yourself
[D] [E]
And don’t know what to do
[Bm] [E] [A]
The memory of love will see you through
Chorus
[C#m] [F#m]
Oh Love to some is like a cloud
[D] [E] [A]
To some as strong as steel
[C#m] [F#m]
For some a way of living
[D] [E] [A]
For some a way to feel
[C#m] [F#m]
And some say love is holding on
[D] [E] [A]
And some say letting go
[C#m] [F#m]
And some say love is everything
[Bm] [E]
Some say they don’t know
Verse 3
[A] [F#m]
Perhaps love is like the ocean
[Bm] [E]
Full of conflict, full of pain
[A] [F#m]
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
[Bm] [E]
Thunder when it rains
[C#m] [F#m]
If I should live forever
[D] [E]
And all my dreams come true
[Bm] [E] [A]
My memories of love will be of you
Break
[C#m] [F#m] [D] [E] [A]

Chorus
[C#m] [F#m]
And some say love is holding on
[D] [E] [A]
And some say letting go
[C#m] [F#m]
And some say love is everything
[Bm] [E]
Some say they don’t know
Verse 4
[A] [F#m]
Perhaps love is like the ocean
[Bm] [E]
Full of conflict, full of pain
[A] [F#m]
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
[Bm] [E]
Thunder when it rains
[C#m] [F#m]
If I should live forever
[D] [E]
And all my dreams come true
[Bm] [E] [A]
My memories of love will be of you
