D                     D
I've got the love art blues,
D                      G
Don't know which on to choose,
G                           A
There's really something to loose,
A                   D
With these love art blues.
D                     D
I went and played too hard,
D              G
And I lost my fun,
G                  A
Oh, these love art blues,
*D               D   D7
Leave me a heavy one.
Chorus
G                   A
My songs are all so long,
       D                *E7
And my words are all so sad,
G          A
Why must I choose,
            D             Dmaj7 D7
Between the best things I ever  had.

D                    D
I spilled my promise cup,
D                    G
I really don't know why,
G                A
Now the distance slides,
                D
Between you and I.
D                     D
I've got the love art blues,
D                      G
Don't know which on to choose,
G                           A
There's really something to loose,
A                   D
With these love art blues.
