_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [C] _ [F] _
_ _ _ [Gm] I'm sure what the [A] balance [Dm] held, I [C] touched my [F] belly _ _ [Gm] overwhelmed
By what [A] I had been [D] chosen to [C] perform. _
[F] _ _ _ [Gm] But then an angel [A] came one [Dm] day, told [C] me to [F] kneel down and [Gm] pray
For [A]
unto me a [D] man's child would [C] be born.
[F] _ _ [D] _ Whoa, this crazy [A] _ circumstance.
[Dm] _ I [C] knew [F] his life deserved [Gm] a chance, but [A] everybody told [D] me to be [C] smart. _
[F] _ _ _ [Gm] Look at your career, [A] they say, [Dm] _ Lauren, [C] baby, [F] use your [Gm] head.
_ But [A] instead I [D] chose to use [F] my heart.
Now the _ [Gm] joy _ _ [A] of my [Dm] _ _ _ [F] _ _
days in _ [Gm] Zaya. _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [F] _
Now the _ [Gm] joy _ _ _

of my days in Zaya.
[G] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ [Dm] _ _ [C] _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] How beautiful [A] is nothing [Dm] more [F] than to wait at [Gm] Zaya's door.
_ I've [A] never been in love [Dm] like this [C] before.
[F] _ _ _ [Gm] Now let me pray [A] to be you [Dm] from _ [C] the peril [F] that will surely [Gm] come. _
[A] Life for you, my [D] prince, has [C] just _
[F] begun.
_ [Gm] And I thank you for [A] choosing [D] me to [C] come through [F] on your life [Gm] to be
a [A] beautiful _ [D] reflection of [F] his _ _ grace.
[Gm] See, I know that it [A] gets so [Dm] great, it's [C] only way.
[F] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ And [A] I'm reminded every [D] time I [C] see your [F] face at the _ [Gm] door. _ _
[A] _ He's in my [Dm] world.
_ [F] _ _
He's in _ [Gm] Zaya. _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[F] Now the door _ [Gm] _ _ _
[A] of my [Dm] world _ [C] _ _
[F] is in _ [Gm] Zaya. _ _
[A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ _
[F] Now the _ [Gm] door _ _ _
[A] is _ [D] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ in _ [G] Zaya.
_ [A] _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[F] Now the [Gm] door. _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[F] He's in _ [Gm] _ Zaya.
[A] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ We [G] _ go.
[E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [E]
No.
_ [B] No, no, [E] _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _ no, _
[F#] _ _ no, no. [E] _ No. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ No, _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] no, _ _ _ no.
No, no, no, no, no. _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [A#] _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [D] Okay, how many people in here have [G] ever been in love?
[C] I know none of the guys gonna [D] raise their hand, but how many of y'all ever been in love?
I _ [G] know none of the guys been in love.
We don't get [C] in love, right?
_ [Dm] Oh, let [A] this black man right here [D] tell what his idea [G] of love is.
Because not all the [C] time we hear one black [A] man talk about [D] love.
About your personal [G] definition.
Don't tell me what Webster's definition.
_ _ Huh?
[F#m] Willing to do everything for that [D] person.
Okay, everything [G] like what?
Explain.
_ [C] Let him talk, come on.
If I asked him to talk about [A] a fancy car, he'd be right on [D] point.
But we want to [G] talk about love.
You can do it.
What do [E] you think?
You said you love [A] somebody.
You should know why you love [D] somebody.
_ _ _ [G] The way they act, [C] the way [Bm] they [A] carry themselves, stuff like that.
[D] _ They say what they [G] want to say, what they want to do, whatever.
[C] And they [F#m] just stand [A] out.
It's like sometimes it [D] don't even matter what we [G] love or what we're supposed to be.
It's like _
[D#] that way.
And you _ [C] know that you want to talk to [G] him because he stands out.
Like he got a will.
_ [C] _ _ [A] _
That's deep love.
[D] I thought that was [G] a beautiful point.
Anybody else want to deal with that?
_ [C] And sometimes [Bm] like when they [A] try to act funny in front of their boys [D] and they get around and they say they [G] love you.
They can't love.
Because [C] love, love, [Bm] love [A] wouldn't do that. _ _
[D] _ Love is not [G] funny. _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [N] _ _
