You Get A Love Song

C

[Verse]
C
Well, they ain’t gonna make a movie
C
About a couple of fools like us
C
No one’s gonna write a book
C
About our little love
    F
You don’t get your picture on the local front page
                                   C
For falling in love at a reckless age, no, no

[Verse]
    G
For saying I do when you’re nineteen
     F                         C
In a hand-me-down dress with a pawn shop ring
    G
For having no money for a honeymoon
              F                    C
'Cause you’re saving it up for the baby boom
    Dm                                          G
For knowing a love dies hard when it starts this young
          F
Well, you don’t get much, no, no
              C
But you get a love song

[Verse]
C
Well, this Sunday’s sermon won’t mention
C
All the work we put into this love
C
They ain’t gonna hang a billboard
C
Congratulating us
    F
For surviving every rise and fall
                                           C
For being more hard headed than a wrecking ball, no, no

[Verse]
    G
For letting me chase a hopeless dream
     F                  C
For giving up on trying to change me
    G
For drinking your way so far down
  F                         C
I almost thought I couldn’t pull you out
    Dm                                         G
But knowing the only thing harder than letting go, oh, is holding on
         F
But, you don’t get much, no, no
                  C
Oh, but you get a love song
C
You get a love song
              F
Oh, you get a love song
          C
You get a love song

[Verse]
C
Next time a hurricane comes through
C
They won’t name it after us
C
And how could you paint a picture
C
That looked anything like love
    F
The 6 o’clock news don’t give a damn
                                           C
That by the grace of god we worked it out again, by the grace of god

[Verse]
    G
For working overtime and living week to week
    F                        C
For letting your dreams fall into me
    G
For being a man with a damn good heart
          F                    C
I’m gonna hold you through the hardest part
    Dm                                     G
For being a love that will last even after life is gone
          F
Well, you don’t get much, no, no, no, no
          C
You get a love song
C
You get a love song
              F
Oh, you get a love song
          C
You get a love song
C
You get a love song
