For the Love Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [Am]used to[F][C][Dm][Am][F][C]
[Dm]pray[Am] to a glossy page
A [F]cut out from [C]a magazine[Dm]
[Am]I was afraid of real things
And [F]I couldn’t get
[C]to sleep [Dm]to dream
[Am]My mom came out and I was mean
I [F]said “what a slap [C]in [Dm]the f[Am]ace”
Then she got sick and lost her hair
And then her part[F]ner died of
the [C]same [Dm]thing.

[Verse 2]
[Am]My mom survived, but we lost Joan
the day [F]before [C]New York [Dm]legalized love
And [Am]The streets were
full of young and old
And [F]shiny new [C]ring
s exchanged [Dm]in gold

[Verse 3]
For [Am]the love
For the [F]love[C][Dm]
[Am]For the love
For the love
[F][C][Dm][Am]

[Verse 4]
I kissed a girl and felt no shame
With [F]Katy on the ra[C]dio[Dm]
[Am]I told my mom that we
were the same
[F]She said we’ve got
[C]a ways [Dm]to go.

[Verse 5]
[Am]And I’ve known love that’s wider than
The [F]place in [C]middle where
[Dm]it’s painted red
[Am]And I believe that fear
is weaker than love
[F]Just like the[C] magazine rea[Dm]d

[Verse 6]
For the [Am]love
For the [F]love[C][Dm]
[Am]For the love
For the love
[F][C]

[Verse 7]
[Dm][Am]
This [G]life is imperfect
And love [C]is a mess
I want [F]the right to fuck it up
Just like [C]anybody else
Just like [Dm]everybody [G]else
For [Am]the [F]love
[C]For [Dm]the love
[Am]For the love
[C]For the[F] lov[C]e[Dm]
For [Am]the love

[Verse 8]
For [F]the [C]lov[Dm]e[Am]
For the love
For [F]the [C]lov[Dm]e[Am]

[Verse 9]
For the [Am]love[F]
[C]For the [Dm]love
[Am]For the love

[Outro 1]
For the love
[F][C][Dm][Am][F][C]
