Verse 1
He was sitting on a corner with a bottle of beer,
And the same shopping cart he'd been pushing for years,
A big smile on his face,
Like the first day of spring,
All the people looked the other way,
but they heard him sing, and he sang,
(chorus)
Lo--ve, love is a sweet thing,
He sang love,
Lo--ve is a sweet thing,
Verse 2
She shot out of Texas,
Like a bullet from a gun,
With a van full of hippies and a band on the run,
She didn't want to be famous,
She just wanted to play,
In old dive bars and pool halls she got up on stage,
And she sang,
(chorus)
Lo--ve, love is a sweet thing,
She sang love,
Lo--ve is a sweet, sweet thing,
(bridge)
It's everywhere you look,
If you look hard enough,
Its really not hard to see,
Yeah, once you put your arms around it,
You can never get too much,
Love is a sweet, sweet thing,
(lead chords - C - Am7 - Em7 - G = 2x's)
It's in the smile of a stranger,
In the eyes of a child,
On the corner of a crowded street,
Its everywhere around us,
Its always growing wild,
Love is a sweet, sweet thing,
(chorus)
Lo--ve, love is a sweet thing,
I sang love, love, love,
Lo--ve is a sweet, sweet thing,
I sang, love, love, love,
Love is a sweet, sweet thing
Lo--ve, love is a sweet thing,
I sang love,
Lo--ve is a sweet, sweet thing
