Joan Baez - Love is just a four letter word (from NDH) chords
Start Jamming...
[Db] [Eb] Seemed like only yesterday [Fm] I left my mind behind
[Eb] Down in a gypsy cafe [Fm] with a friend of a friend of mine
[Eb] Who sat with baby head on her [F] knee
[Bbm] [Eb] Spoke of life most free from [F] slavery
[Bbm] With [Eb] eyes that showed no trace of [Bbm] misery
[Bbm]
[Bb] The [Eb] phrase in connection first was she
[Db] Oh, [Eb] a girl that love is just a four [Ab] letter word
[Fm] [Ab] Outside a [Eb] rattling storefront window
[Fm] Cat's meow to the break of day
Me, I kept my mouth shut to you I had no words to say
[Eb] My experience was limited and unfair
[Bbm] [Eb] But you were laughing while I [Bbm] hid
Oh, the one who was the father of your kid
[Eb] You probably didn't think I did
[Db] But [Eb] you say that love is just a four [Ab] letter word
[Fm] [Ab]
I [Eb] went on my way and on I slipped [Fm] forth into my own games
[Eb] Been out of [Fm] lifetimes, unmentionable by name
[Eb] Searching for my double, [Bbm] looking for
[Eb] Complete evaporation to the [F] core
[Bbm] Though [Eb] I tried and failed at finding [Bbm] any [F] door
[Bbm] Well, [Eb] I must have thought that there was [Bbm] nothing more [Db]
[Eb] absurd
Than that love is just a four letter [Ab] word
Strange it [Eb] is to be beside [Cm] you many [F] years of tables [Fm] turned
Probably [Eb] not believe me if I told you all I've learned
[Eb] And it is very, very weird [F] indeed to [Bbm] [Eb] hear words [Bbm]
flee
Some [Eb] ships run to my mind I [Bbm] cannot cheat
It's [Eb] like the looking in a teacher's face, complete
[F] [Bbm] I [Eb] can say nothing to you [Bbm] but repeat [Db] what I [Eb] heard
That love is just a four letter, love is just a four letter, love is just a four [Ab] letter word
