  4   -4   5    5 -6 5  5 -4  -4    4     4   -4 5    5    low octave
  7   -8   8    8 -9 8  8 -8  -8    7     7   -8 8    8    high octave
Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed.
  4   -4   5    5 -5 5  5 -4  -4     4     4   -4   5   5
  7   -8   8    8 -9 8  8 -8  -8     7     7   -8   8   8
Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
  5   -6   6    6 -6   6  6  4   -4  5   5   -4 4   -3bb
  8   -9   9    9 -10  9  9  7   -8  8   8   -8 7    6
Some say love, it is   a hunger, an endless aching need.
4  -4   5    5 -5 5   5 -4   -4  4   4   -4 4   4
7  -8   8    8 -9 8   8 -8   -8  7   7   -8 7   7
I say love, it is a flower, and you it's only seed.

  4   -4   5    5  -5   5   5  -4    -4   4 4    -4    5   5
  7   -8   8    8  -9   8   8  -8    -8   7 7    -8    8   8
It's the heart, afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance.
  4  -4    5    5  -5   5  5 -4    -4   4 4   -4   5    5
  7  -8    8    8  -9   8  8 -8    -8   7 7   -8   8    8
It's the dream, afraid of waking, that never takes a chance.
 5    -5  6   6   -6    6  6 4   -4   5  5   -4   4   -3bb
 8    -9  9   9   -10   9  9 7   -8   8  8   -8   7   6
It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give.
 4  -4    5   5  -6   5  5-4    -4   4 4    -4    4   4
 7  -8    8   8  -9   8  8-8    -8   7 7    -8    7   7
And the soul, afraid of dyin', that never learns to live.

  4   -4   5    5   -5   5   5  -4  -4   4    4   4   -4   5   5
  7   -8   8    8   -9   8   8  -8  -8   7    7   7   -8   8   8
When the night has been too lonely, and the road has been too long,
 4   -4   5     5   -6   5  5-4 -4   4   4  4  -4  5     5
 7   -8   8     8   -9   8  8-8 -8   7   7  7  -8  8     8
And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong.
  5  -5 6  6  -6  6   6  4   4  -4  5    5   -4 4   -3bb
  8  -9 9  9  -10 9   9  7   7  -8  8    8   -8 7    6
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows,
  4   -4   5     5   -5   5    5    -4   -4  4     4   -4  5    4    4
  7   -8   8     8   -9   8    8    -8   -8  7     7   -8  8    7    7
Lies the seed, that with the sun's love, in the spring becomes The Rose.
