Is your love in vain

Intro : instrumental = verse 3

D A - Bm - D G A - A7

1. Do you love me, or are you just extending good will ?

D A Bm D G A - A7

Do you need me half as bad as you say, or are you just feeling guilt ?

Bm A G D G A - A7

I’ve been burnt before and I know the score, so you won’t hear me complain.

D A Bm D G A D

Will I be able to count on you, or is you love in vain?

D A Bm D G A D

2. Are you so fast that you cannot see that I must have solitude ?

D A Bm - D G Em A - A7

When I am in the darkness, why do you intrude?

Bm A G D G Em A - A7

Do you know my world, do you know my kind, or must I explain?

D A Bm D G A D

Will you let me be myself or is your love in vain?

G A D Bm

Well, I’ve been to the mountain and I’ve been in the wind,

G A D

I’ve been in and out of happiness.

G A D Bm

I have dined with kings, I’ve been offered wings,

G A - A7

and I’ve never been too impressed.

D A Bm - D G A D

3. All right, I‘ll take a chance, I will fall in love with you,

D A Bm D G A - A7

if I’m a fool, you can have the night, you can have the morning, too.

Bm A G D G A - A7

Can you cook and sew, make flowers grow, do you understand my pain?

D A Bm D G A D

Are you willing to risk it all, or is your love in vain?
