Intro: G 

verse 1: 
               C/G 
In the name of love she came  
     G               C/G 
This foolish winsome girl  
        D          D/C        G/B     C 
She was all decked out like a rainbow trout  
D          D7            G 
Swimming upstream in the world  

 
                                   C/G     G 
And she said "Please, please, I've lost my way 
                   C/G 
The current is too strong  
       D       D/C        G/B   C 
In the name of love, kind sir I pray  
D      D7      G       C  A  D A D 
In the name of love"   


verse 2: 
                     G 
So I took her by the hand 
    D              G 
She took me by the will  
        A          A/G       D/F#      G 
She was all dolled up like a blue eyed pup  
A           Asus4        A 
Looking for something to spill  

 
               D       D/F#         G       D 
And she said, "Please, please, I've lost my way  
                   G 
The current is too strong  
       A       A/G        D/F#   G     A 
In the name of love, kind sir, I pray  
       A7      D      G   D   G   D 
In the name of love" 


verse 3: 
               G 
In the name of love she came  
     D               G 
This foolish winsome girl  
        A          A/G        D/F#    G 
She was all decked out like a rainbow trout  
A          A7            D 
Swimming upstream in the world  

 
                       D/F#         G       D 
And she said, "Please, please, I've lost my way  
                   G 
The current is too strong  
         A        A/G         D/F#    G          A 
Then she gave one flip of the rainbow tip of her tail 
        A7        D     
And she swam back down 
 
                       D/F#         G       D 
And she said, "Please, please, I've lost my way  
                   G 
The current is too strong  
       A       A/G        D/F#   G     A 
In the name of love, kind sir, I pray  
       A7      D      G   D   G   D 
In the name of love" 

                       D/F#         G       D 
And she said, "Please, please, I've lost my way  
                   G 
The current is too strong  
       A       A/G        D/F#   G     A 
In the name of love, kind sir, I pray  
       A7      D      G   D   G   D 
In the name of love" 
 
                       D/F#         G       D 
And she said, "Please, please, I've lost my way  
                   G 
The current is too strong  
       A       A/G        D/F#   G     A 
In the name of love, kind sir, I pray  
       A7      D      G   D   G   D
