I had a radio series in England that ran for about 26 weeks.
And on the series I had an idea that if I asked the general public to send me words that they'd written that they thought would be good for a song,
I might get quite a good response, you see.
I was mad.
[Ab] In the first 13 weeks we got half a million.
[F] Don't send me any lyrics, whatever happened.
Half a million.
And then, thank goodness, we had a postal strike.
Yeah, we're paid to that.
But out of those half a million we found some wonderful words.
But, you know, nearly all of them were about love.
It [Dm] was wonderful to find out that nearly everybody in the world [Bb] has felt this feeling of love.
Now this is one [F] of the lyrics.
[G] And the person [F] was trying to tell me what love is.
Love is a [Bb] morning sunrise.
[F] Love is the [C] rain that falls.
[F] Love is an [Dm] evening sunset.
[Bb] A [C] stranger [F] who calls.
Love is an [Bb] April shower.
[F] The warmth of a summer [C]
day.
[F] Love is [Dm] the hidden sunshine.
[Bb] That chases [F] tears away.
[C] And green is the [F] grass that's growing.
[C] And blue [Bb] as the [F] sky above.
[A] As soft as the wind [Dm] that's blowing.
[Bb] All these things [C] are love.
[F] Love is a bolt of [Bb] lightning.
[F] Flashing across the [C] sky.
[F] And love is the tender [Dm] warmth.
[Bb] I see [C] within [F] your eyes.
[C] And green [Bb] is the grass [F] that's growing.
[C] And blue [Bb] as the sky [F] above.
[A] And soft as the wind [Dm] that's blowing.
[Bb] All these things [C] are love.
