    Let Love Speak For Itself

  • Artist:

    Beautiful South

G                       Em
Don't whisper love and dream of wedding bells
 Am                            C              G       Em Am
Don't do all the talking, let love speak up itself
     C              G                                 Em Am
Let love speak up itself

G            C                        Am               G
So when you feel a little tatty and unhappy with your face
 C              G          Am                G
Let it breathe into us and put you back in place
          C               G
Let it breathe, let it breathe
          C                            Am                G
From the day it came into us 'till the day it wants to leave
        C            G
For it will, it will go
        C              G                   Am          G
And it will not say good-bye just like it didn't say hello
       F
There will not be a send-off, a funeral or mass
          C
Just a pathetic little vodka from a dirty little glass
Am
"To the world's greatest mum
G                           C
From the oldest swinger in town"

                    G                                 Em Am
Let love speak up itself
     C              G                                 Em Am
Let love speak up itself
        G                          Em
Let it rise up in the morning and take us for a walk
Am                           C                G       Em Am
Let it do the talking when we're to tired to talk
       C                 G
When we're too tired to talk

     C                             Am             G
And when you feel unhappy that I'm not the one I was
 C             G        Am                 G
Let love rot inside and let love palm you off
        C           G
Let it rot, let it rot
 C                            Am             G
Let it take your feelings and tie them in a knot
      C          G
In a knot, in a knot
 C                  G         Am             G
Let it take your feelings and tie them in a knot
 F
Hang them from a cleaver and say "Look what we've got
   C
A man and a woman and guess what they forgot"
Am
"To the world's greatest mum
G                           C
From the oldest swinger in town"

                    G
Let love speak up itself.
