INTRO
[drum fill, two bars]
G Bm/F# Em C
G Bm/F# Em C
G
Love is like a melody
Bm/F#
It taunts my every memory
Em C
The harmony is discern under spell
G
The orchestra is tuning up
Bm/F#
As doors are swung and swiftly shut
Em C
I think about you more than I can bear
G
Love is like a minor key
Bm/F#
That changes weeping willow tree
Em C
It hooks its claws until the blood is drawn
G
The audience is spilling out
Bm/F#
I slip into the busy crowd
Em C
But still your face remains after I'm gone
D
I could sleep until the summertime
G
Maybe then I'd get the peace of mind
C6 G
Cut the wires of my telephone line
D
But even in the dead of night
G
I toss and turn like a little child
C6 D
A heavy heart can never be satisfied
G
Love is like a melody
Bm/F#
A fever to the remedy
Em C
I see you like a silent movie star
G
If you could step out of the screen
Bm/F#
And wake me from the wretched dream
Em C
But I can only watch you from afar
D
I could sleep until the summertime
G
Maybe then I'd get the peace of mind
C6 G
Cut the wires of my telephone line
D
But even in the dead of night
G
I toss and turn like a little child
C6 D7
A heavy heart can never be satisfied
G
Love is a melody
D
It may ruin me
Bm
A deafening symphony
CM7
That pulls at the seams
G
Trapped in the rhapsody
D
That plays the wrong notes
Bm
It's killing me slowly
CM7
So please let me go
Em G6/D
C6
Don't let me go
Em G6/D
Please let me go
C6
Don't let me go
G
Love is like a minor key
Bm/F#
The widow in the cemetery
Em C
Who's make-up leaves a trail upon the ground
G
I thought I saw our name in lights
Bm/F#
But that was in a former life
Em C
The song I sing is never sung aloud
G/D
And love is just a melody
D7 G
And you will never hear me make a sound
G
