[Verse]
C                  Bb   C7
I've been throwing horseshoes
F            G
Over my left shoulder
F             C 
I've spent most all my life
D7                G
Looking for that four-leafed clover
C              Bb  C7
When you run with me,
F          G
Chasing my rainbows
F             C
Honey I love you, too
G                       C
And that's the way love goes.

[Chorus]
C                   Bb    C7
That's the way love goes, babe
F                 G
That's the music God made
F             C
For all the world to sing
D7                 G
It's never old; it grows
C               Bb   C7
Losing makes me sorry
F                   G
You say, Honey, now don't worry.
F                 C
Don't you know I love you too
G                       C
And that's the way love goes.

[Solo] (same chord progression)

[Chorus]
C                   Bb    C7
That's the way love goes, babe
F                 G
That's the music God made
F             C
For all the world to sing
D7                 G
It's never old; it grows
C               Bb   C7
Losing makes me sorry
F                     G
You say, Honey, don't worry.
F               C
Don't you know I love you too
G                       C
And that's the way love goes.
