Verse 1:

G                  D7
 If I was the sun, way up there,
C                       G
 I'd go with love, most everywhere.
G                           D7
 I'll be the moon, when the sun goes down,
C                           G
 Just to let you know, that I'm still around.

Chorus 1:

G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is,
    C                    G
Oh, that's how strong my love is.
G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is, baby, baby,
C                     G
 That's how strong my love is.

Verse 2:

G                            D7
 I'll be the weeping willow, drowning in my tears,
C                     G
 You can go swimming, when you're here.
G                              D7
 I'll be the rainbow, when the sun is gone,
C                           G
 Wrap you in my colours and keep you warm.

Chorus 2:

G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is, darling,
C                     G
 That's how strong my love is, baby.
G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is, ooh,
C                     G
 That's how strong my love is.

Bridge 1:

Em                     C
 I'll be the ocean, so deep and wide,
Em                            C
 I'll get out the tears, when-ever you cry.
Em                             C
 I'll be the breeze, after the storm is gone,
D
 To dry your eyes and love you warm.

Chorus 3:

G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is, baby,
C                     G
 That's how strong my love is.
G                     D7
 That's how strong my love is, darling,
C                     G
 That's how strong my love is.

Coda:

 That's how strong my love is, so deep in,
      C                    G
Well, that's how strong my love is.
        G                  D7
So much love, yes, so much love, ooh,
             C                  G
Yes, so much love, yes, so much love.
              G                 D7
Anything that I can do, I'll be good for you,

Any kind of love you want, I'll be with you...
