Freaks In Love

Elton John


Tom: Gm

Gm  F   Bb                        Gm                    Cm
Me and you, we're not that pretty.   Me and you could use a lift.
F              Bb/D    Gm              Eb
I'm out here on the corner crying.  I got rhythms, but I got no gift.
Bb                           Gm               Cm
Me and you, we're all we've got.  Me and you could be a curse.
F           Bb/D        Gm                           Eb
We've got bleeding hearts and flowers.  You've got strings, but
 Bb       F
You've got no purse.


[Chorus]

 Eb                   F                   Bb                     Ab9
We're just freaks in love.  Saints above, shine on our sweet life.
Eb                F          Bb          F/A      Gm  F    Eb
Happy is the union of fools and freaks alike, and fearless
F       Bb           Adim          Gm                Eb       G/D
Are the idiots among the hawks and doves.  We're on the outside
Cm                 F             Eb     Bb
Looking in;  A couple of freaks in love.


[Verse 2]

Gm     F  Bb                 Gm                       Cm
There's a wonder in this weakness.  It's so beautiful sometimes.
F   Bb/D             Gm             Eb               Bb       F
Across the universe, with lightning; in the race, we're a step behind.
Bb                        Gm                        Cm
Me and you, we're not for everyone.  Me and you, we're damaged
F            Bb/D   Gm           Eb       Bb      F
Goods.  We're antique and unacceptable, and just misunderstood.


[Chorus]

 Eb                   F                   Bb                     Ab9
We're just freaks in love.  Saints above, shine on our sweet life.
Eb                F          Bb          F/A      Gm  F    Eb
Happy is the union of fools and freaks alike, and fearless
F       Bb           Adim          Gm                Eb       G/D
Are the idiots among the hawks and doves.  We're on the outside
Cm                 F             Eb     Bb
Looking in;  A couple of freaks in love.
