[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]
[C]You know, man,
when I was a young [F]man in high school
[C]You believe it or not,
I wanted to play football for the [F]coach
[C]And all those older guy[F]s, they said
that he was mean and cruel, but you know
[C]I wanted to play football, for the coa[F]ch
[C]They said I was a lit[F]tle too lightweight
to play lineback and so I was playin' right- end
[C]Wanted to play football for the coa[F]ch
[C]'Cause, you kno[F]w some day,
man you gotta stand up straight
unless you're gonna [C]fall
Then you're going to [F]die
[C]And the straightest dud[F]e, I ever knew
was standing right for me, all the time
[C]So I had to play football for the coa[F]ch
[C]And I wanted to play football for the coa[F]ch
[C][F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]When you're all alone and lon[F]ely
In your [C]midnight [F]hour
[C]And you find that your sou[F]l
It has been up for [Dm]sale[G]
[C]And you're getting to thi[F]nk about
All the [C]things that you [F]done
[C]And you're getting to hat[F]e
Just about every[Dm]thing[G]

[Chorus 1]
[Am]But remember the princ[G]ess
who lived [F]on the [G]hill
[Am]Who loved you even though she knew[G]
you was [F]wrong[G]
[Am]And right now she [G]just
[F]might come shining through, and [G]the
[C]Glory of lov[F]e
[C]Glory of lov[F]e
[C]Glory of lov[F]e,
just might come [Dm]through[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]And all your two[F]-bit friends have gone
and [C]ripped you [F]off
[C]They're talking behind your bac[F]k saying
"man, you're never going to be
no human [Dm]being"[G]
[C]And[F] you start thinking again
about [C]all those things that you've done
[F]And[C] who it was and what it was
[F]And all the different things
that made every different [Dm]scene[G]

[Chorus 2]
[Am]Ah, but remember
that the [G]city is a [F]funny [G]place
[Am]Something like a circus or a[G] sewer[F][G]
[Am]And just remember,
different [G]people [F]have peculiar tastes, and [G]the
[C]Glory of lov[F]e
[C]The glory of lov[F]e
[C]The glory of lov[F]e,
might see you [Dm]through[G]

[Outro 1]
Yeah, but now, [C]now, glory of [F]love
[C]The glory of lov[F]e
[C]The glory of lov[F]e
might see you [Dm]through[G]
[C]Glory of lov[F]e, uh, huh-huh
[C]The glory of lov[F]e
[C]Glory of lov[F]e, glory of love
[C]Glory of love, now[F], glory of love, now
[C]Glory of love, now, now, now[F], glory of love
[C]Glory of love, give it to me now,
[F]glory of love to see you through, huh
[C]Oh,[F] my Coney Island baby, now
[C](I'[F]m a Coney Island baby)
[C]I'd like to send this one out
to [F]Lou and Rachel (I'm a Coney Island [C]baby)
And all the [F]kids at P.S. 192
[C](Coney Island baby) Man, I'd swear,
I'd give the whole thing up for you
