D5
In a world full of jive

Full of homicide and suicide,
        G5           A5          D5
There`s no room for love and romance

In a world full of spite

Full of hatefulness and bitterness
   G5      A5             D5
Sincerity don`t stand a chance
    B5            B5
And every night I close my eyes
    B5          B5
And ask the stars above,
   A5                   A5                 D5
Oh where, oh where, oh where, oh where is love?

Where is love and romance
      D5         G5  G5  E5         E5
And appreciation of storybooks, fairytales
        E5     A5
And the ordinary things people did long ago.
 A5          D5
Where did it go?
 D5
Where is love?

Where is hope?
         D5           G5      G5
Where is sympathy and trust?
         E5
Where is faith?
         E5      E5
Where is joy in simplicity?
    A5
And where is regard and respect?
   A5                 D5
Oh where, oh where is love?
     A5
This world is spinning and turning
                       D5
And my head is full of learning
       B5                 E5
But my thoughts keep on returning
       A5                D5
To the things I used to know.
            A5
I should be stronger,
                        D5
But my mind continually wanders
    B5
And deep inside
  E5
A voice keeps crying
 A5                 D5
Where, oh where is love?

Where is love and romance, 
      D5         G5  G5  E5         E5
And appreciation of storybooks, fairytales,
        E5     A5
And the ordinary things people did long ago?
A5           D5
Where did it go?

In a world full of jive, 

Full of homicide and suicide,
        G5           A5          D5
There's no room for love and romance

In a world full of rape,

Full of hatefulness and bitterness,
   G5      A5             D5
Sincerity don't stand a chance.
    B5            B5
And every night I close my eyes
    B5         B5
And ask the stars above,
   A5                   A5                 D5
Oh where, oh where, oh where, oh where is love?
         A5        D5
Where oh where is love?

Where is love?

Where is hope?
         D5           G5        G5
Where is sympathy and trust?
         E5
Where is faith?
         E5       E5
Where is joy and simplicity
    A5
And where is regard and respect?
   A5                 D5
Oh where, oh where is love?
   A5                D5
Oh where oh where is love?
   A5                D5
Oh where oh where is love?
