Great Love Of My Life

INTRO: G   D

                 G           C               G
Great love of my life, how I feel you here beside me
             Am          C                   G
Watching the clouds turn red at the close of day
        Em                 G    Em
And you know I think about you
                C                    G     D
As the sun goes down and you're far away


                 G       C               G
Great love of my life, I see your face before me
       Am       C           G
As the day goes fading into night
         Em             G
And it's all that I can do
       Em              C                  G       D
Not to want you here beside me in the firelight


INSTRUMENTAL: G  C  G  Am  C  G  Em  G  Em  C  G  D


                 G         C             G
Great love of my life, you know it isn't easy
           Am         C                  G
Saying goodbye to the good times that we knew
    Em                  G        Em
The hard times came and took us
                            C              G              D
Where we never thought we'd go and left us broken, me and you


                 G         C                  G
Great love of my life, the flames are leaping higher
           Am        C            G     Em
Talking to me in the quiet, empty room
                G
So happy and so sad
         Em              C                  G     D
With the twisted pain of love that left too soon


INSTRUMENTAL: G  C  G  Am    C  G  Em  G  Em  C  G  D


             G             C                   G                      Am
Remember the time we stood laughing like small children caught in the rain
         C             G
And they took our photograph
         Em                G   Em               C
With our arms around each other and our eyes on fire
                   G                    D
Looking out at the rain running off our hats


                 G         C                  G                  Am
Great love of my life, the first time that we touched we were so hungry
   C             G       Em
It took us by surprise
             G               Em               C
And it never changed all the years we were as one
             G                D                     G
We tasted it all, we paid the price and we paid the price
