Love Lifted Me

Kenny Rogers


Tom: D

     D                     D/C#
I'll write myself a simple song
        D/B                 D/A
Get the whole world to sing along
     G         A             D   A7
I'll call it a love song for you

     D                     D/C#
And who knows I'm liable 
        D/B                 D/A
to take a song from the bible
    E7             A 
And then when I'm through
      A7
I'll just sing:

D    F#m A7 D
Love lifted me, 
D    F#m A7 D
love lifted me
G    F#m Em  D      Dm
When nothing else would do
          D    F#m A7 D
You know, love lifted me

     D                     D/C#
Everybody's lookin' for a way
        D/B                 D/A
To say something nobody said
  G     A          D   A7
But that's hard to do

     D                     D/C#
They're searchin' their mind
        D/B                 D/A
Tryin' to find the one of a kind way
      E7                       A 
That they could say something new
  A7
I just say:


D    F#m A7 D
Love lifted me, 
D    F#m A7 D
Love lifted me
G    F#m Em  D      Dm
When I was down and out
           D    F#m A7 D
You know, love lifted me

D    F#m A7 D
Love lifted me, 
D    F#m A7 D
love lifted me
G    F#m Em  D      Dm
When nothing else would do
          D    F#m A7 D
You know, love lifted me
