Verse 1:

      Ab            Bbm/Ab Ab  Cm7         Fm9
      One of a kind            love affair is
           C#                   Ab/C            Bbm7       Ab/C
      The kind of love that you read about in a fairy tale
               C#                   Ab/C
      Like the sun that shines on a rainy day
              Bbm7         Bbm7/Eb
      It's a cloud of love

      One of a kind   love affair is
      When your down is up and your up is down but love stays around
      And when you know you're right but you got to make
      A little sacrifice
                     Bbm7/Eb  Eb7    Bbm7/Eb  Eb7
      You make it for love        whoa-oh         yeah

Bridge:

      F#/Ab                      C#/Ab       Ab
        I never thought about the day would come
       C#            Ab/C             Bbm7
      When she would leave without goodbye, yes sir
      F#/Ab                   C#/Ab     Ab
      She wrote a line or two upon the wall
                 C#                     Ab/C
      Said "I'm leaving you, you know I love you too
                 Bbm7           Ab/C
         I can't stay with you"
       C#            Ab/C             Bbm7
      And to this very day I can never say a discouraging word
                   Bbm7/Eb  Eb7  Bbm7/Eb Eb7
      'Cause I love you,      whoa-oa    yessiree now

Verse 2:

      (One of a kind)   love affair is
      When you hate to say girl, I told you so but you gotta go
      There won't be a fight
      'Cause you're love is right
      But you're leaving wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong

      (One a kind   love affair is)
      When you treat her nice but you finally have to pay the price
      And though you know you're right, but you got to make
      A little sacrifice
      You make it for love, you make it for love

      You just got to hurt her, yeah

      One of a kind   love affair is
      Makes a lame man walk
      Makes a blind man talk about seein' again

      Makes me wanna be around you
      Girl, I'm glad I found you

      Wanna be with you [fade]
