You Have Been Loved Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][D][Am]
[Bsus4][B][Em]
[Am][D][Am]
[Bsus4]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]She takes the back road and the lane
Past the school that has not changed
In all this time
[D][Am]

[Verse 2]
She thinks of when the boy was young
All the battles she [Bsus4]had won
[Em]Just to give him [Am]life

[Verse 3]
That man, [Am]she loved that man
For all his [D]life[Am]
But now we meet to take him flowers
And only God [Bsus4]knows why[Em]

[Verse 4]
[D]For what's the use in pressing palms
[B]When children fade in mother
[Ebdim]'s arm s?[F#m]
It's a cruel world,
[Faug]we've so much to[D] lose
And what we [B]have to learn,
[E]we rarely [Esus4]choose?[E]

[Verse 5]
[D]So if it's God[Gm] who took her son[D]
He [Dm]cannot be [E]the one living
in her [Am]mind[Dm]
[F]"Take [G]care my love",

[Verse 6]
[Am]she [F]said
Don't [G]think that [Am]God is [F]dead
"Take [G]care my [Am]love", [F]she said
You [G]have been loved

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am]
[D][Am]

[Verse 7]
If I was [Am]weak, forgive me
But I [D]was [Am]terrified
You brushed my eyes with angels wings,
full [Bsus4]of love
The kind that [Em]makes devils cry

[Verse 8]
[Am]So these days my life has changed
And I'll be [D]fine (and I'll
[Am]be fine)
But she just sits and counts
the hours
Searching [Bsus4]for her c[Em]rime

[Verse 9]
[D]So what's the use of pressing pal[Ebdim]ms
If [B]you won't keep [Ebdim]such
love from [F#m]harm?
It's a cruel world,
[Faug]you've so much to [D]prove
And Heaven [B]helps [E]the ones
who wait for you?
[Esus4][E]

[Verse 10]
[D]
I've no daugh[Gm]ters, I've no son[D]s
Guess [Dm]I'm the only o[E]ne
Living in my [Am]life[F]
"Take [G]care my love",

[Verse 11]
[Am]he s[F]aid
Don't [G]think that [Am]God is [F]dead
"Take [G]care my [Am]love", [F]he said
You [G]have been [C]loved
