Old Love Song

The Bellamy Brothers


Tom: D

D          G                               D
There’s an old love song, deep within this heart of mine
       A                                 D
And it begs to sing out, every time your near
       G                            D              Bm
It’s a melody that yearns for me to hold you close
       D              A               D
And to let you know I love you, being here.


[Verse 2]
        G                                D
Just an old love song, engrained into my very soul
    A                                    D
The strains of which keep ringing, in my ears
        G                               D            Bm
And the words keep shouting out, “Oh, I need you so”
       D                  A                     D
And it just keeps growing stronger, through the years.


[Chorus]
           G                              D
Oh, like a man who’s been possessed, I am cursed and I am blessed
                                         A
With the ever present sound of a sweet refrain
       G                          D              Bm
And it never lets me rest, and it puts me to the test
G                                    A
    Keeps me coming back, again and again

[Verse 3] 
           G                              D
There’s an old love song I feel I must perform for you
  A                                D
I hope you get my meaning from the start
         G                                          D          Bm
It’s the same sweet words I know, that you’ve heard others use
    D                 A                  D
But these are pouring straight out of my heart


[Verse 4]
           G                                     D
There’s an old love song that might make me seem out of date
     A                                  D
It describes how I would hold you every night
      G                            D             Bm
But I hope that my sincerity don’t come too late
        D                  A                    D
And you feel my love right through till morning light


[Verse 5]
           G                              D
There’s an old love song deep within this heart of mine
       A                                 D
And it begs to sing out, every time your near
       G                            D              Bm
It’s a melody that yearns for me to hold you close
       D              A               D
And to let you know I love you, being here


[Outro]
        G                             D
It’s an old love song.   Yea, just an old love song
        G              A             D
Just an old love song, ringing in my ears.
