THE ELIXIR OF LOVE

Composed by Jerry

Capo: 2nd fret

Intro:
(Am)-(Asus2)-(Am)-(Asus4)-(Am)
[Repeat]

(Am)Somehow I've got to de(Dm7)scribe it,
I (E7)never saw anything (Am)like it(Asus2)-(Am).
I (Dm7)watched it like rain falling (Am)down
From (E7)Heaven, from (Am)Heaven.(Asus2)-(Am)-(Asus4)-(Am)

I (Am)caught some in the palms of my (Dm7)hands
And (E7)saw it was a marvelous (Am)wonder(Asus2)-(Am).
(Dm7)It could do anything, (C)it could heal anything,
A (Dm7)heart, a body or a (G7)soul.

Chorus:
It's the E(C)lixir of (Cmaj7)Love, the E(C)lixir of (Cmaj7)Love,
(C)It changes (A7)all that it (Dm7)touches(G).
The E(Dm7)lixir of (Bb)Love, the E(G)lixir of Love,
(Dm7)Creates new (G)life, mends what's (C)broken(C7).
It (F)ends all the wars (D7/F#)and brings (C)peace to the lands,
(E)It'll stop the wind just lift your (Am)hand(F).
(C)Just like a gentle mist (G)rolling
That can be stopped (C)by no man.(Bdim4)-(E7)

Musical Interlude:
(Am)-(Asus2)-(Am)-(Asus4)-(Am) [Repeat]

I (Am)saw that in my hands I was (Dm7)holding
The most (E7)powerful force in the (Am)whole World
(Asus2)-(Am)But it (Dm7)couldn't do anything (Am)for them,
For these (E7)people who re(Am)sist it.(Asus2)-(Am)-(Asus4)-(Am)

I (Am)lifted my eyes toward the (Dm7)World
And (E7)saw that in all kinds of (Am)places(Asus2)-(Am),
(Dm7)It's in the hearts of (C)loving people,
(Dm7)It's the Spirit and power of (G)God's Love.

Chorus:
It's the E(C)lixir of (Cmaj7)Love,
The E(C)lixir of (Cmaj7)Love,
(C)That changes (A7)all that it (Dm7)touches(G).
The E(Dm7)lixir of (Bb)Love, the E(G)lixir of Love,
(Dm7)Creates new (G)life, saves the (C)old ones(C7).
It (F)ends all the wars (D7/F#)and brings (C)peace to the lands,
(E)It'll stop the wind, just lift your (Am)hand(F).
(C)Just like a gentle mist (G)rolling
That can be stopped (C)by no man.(G)
