Price Of Love

Am      G         F       C
Driving with the day one blues
Am     G         F      C
Just outside of Baton Rouge
Am         G     C         F
Crying so hard I couldn’t see
                    G        C
Wishing my baby was next to me

       Am     G         F      C
I said momma why’s it hurt so bad
C           Am     F      G
Worst damn pain I ever had
 Am                G      F
Why’s it feel the way it does?
                               G        C
She said baby that’s just the price of love


[Chorus]
C                       F
Nothing good comes for free honey
 C                    F
You’ve gotta pay your dues
 C               F                 G                 F
When you’ve got everything, you’ve got everything to lose
 C                 F        C              F
Some people never find it, thank the Lord above
      C                   F       C
That you’ve got a heart, falling apart
 G                         C  F  Am  G
That’s just the price of love


[Verse]
          Am            G      F        C
Well this child’s gonna be the death of me
         Am            G      F        C
She’s taking everything that’s left of me
            Am            G        C          F
I’ve been sneaking in late just to watch her breathe
                            G
Watch that blanket rise and fall
          Am            G      F        C
Well she laughed and said that’s nothing new
       Am          G         F     G
When you were that age honey I did too
   Am             G        F
Hell in my own way I still do
                     G
You’re my baby after all


[Chorus]
 C                       F
Nothing good comes for free honey
 C                    F
You’ve gotta pay your dues
 C               F                 G                 F
When you’ve got everything, you’ve got everything to lose
 C                 F        C              F
Some people never find it, thank the Lord above
      C                   F       C
That you’ve got a heart, falling apart
 G                         C  F  Am  G
That’s just the price of love
