IN THE FACE OF LOVE
WORDS & MUSIC: Earl P. Reinhalter
INTRO: Em - Am/E - Em
Em Am
I. now if our leaders declared war,
Em B7
we'd have to shoot each other on sight.
Em Am
I stand against all you stand for,
Em B7
but my body lies against yours tonight.
C D7 D#dim Em
my friends all say that you're a spy,
C D7 D#dim Em
and I'm sure your friends say that so am I.
C D
but in the face of love,
Em Em7
all nations disappear.
/// REPEAT INTRO ///
Em Am
II. you have a son as old as me.
Em B7
your hair is not as dark as before.
Em Am
you've seen 'most all there is to see.
Em B7
but you're patient with this young amateur.
C D7 D#dim Em
and you ignore my clumsy ways.
C D7 D#dim Em
and I never see the lines in your face.
C D
'cause through the eyes of love,
Em Em7
all time just disappears.
/// REPEAT INTRO ///
Em Am
III. now if my face resembled yours,
Em B7
with not a whisker here on my chin;
Em Am
if my shape could fill the clothes you wear,
Em B7
with the same places fat and thin;
C D7 D#dim Em
we wouldn't care what people said.
C D7 D#dim Em
we'd still be here in the same bed.
C D
'cause through the eyes of love,
Em Em7
the soul alone appears.
