lyrics

Love Was Too Strong - Dan Frechette © 1991

(G) He knew he'd (Am) be somebody
but he (C.) wondered if he'd get the (G) chance
(G) when he was (Am) growing up
he (C.) had his fair share of (G) plans
(G) then his (Am) time was up
he was (C.) working toward his (G) dreams
(G) hey life is (Am) difficult but you can (C.) be who want to (G) be

(chorus)
(Am) He spoke no (C.) lies
he spoke no (D) truth
(C.) a soul on a (G) road where nobody (D) stayed
(C.) he just packed his (D) bag
the world he (G) knew
became his (Em) home
'cause his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
he had to (C.) learn how to play the game (G)

(G) He lived for (Am) pleasure
but the (C.) excitement was all (G) gone
(G) he went out (Am) like a light when he (C.) found out what went (G) wrong
(G) he lost his (Am) patience
(C.) again and again and (G) again
(G) nobody knew the (Am) drifter
he was (C.) nobody's (G) friend

(chorus)

'cause his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
he had to (C.) learn how to face the (G) pain
his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
his (C.) love (Em) was (Am) too (G) strong
he had to (C.) learn how to play the (G) game
he had to (C.) learn how to play the (G) game
had to (C.) learn to play the (G) game
