Intro:

	Gmaj7
	(La la-la-la la la la la la-la-la-la-la)

Verse 1:

	Gmaj7
	Stand beside me all the while no matter what goes wrong
	 C
	Separately we're weak, together we'll be strong

Chorus 1:

	   Gmaj7       C                Gmaj7                      C
	For true love never runs smooth,      but I don't care, 'cause
	Gmaj7         C
	True love is worth all the pain, the heartaches and tears
	 D7           G
	That we may share

[repeat intro]

Verse 2:

	When the world outside my arms is pulling us apart
	Press your lips to mine and hold me with your heart

	We have to face

	For true love never runs smooth,        that's what they say, but
	Abmaj7        Db

	Eb7         Ab
	We have to face
