  			I DO IT FOR YOUR LOVE 
PAUL SIMON 
E7                                           Bm7 
      We were married on a rainy day 
A7                                                     D6 
       The sky was yellow and the  grass was gray 
D#dim                                               Em7 
            We signed papers and we drove away 
 A#dim      Am         D9 
I   do   it    for your love 
E7                                                            Bm7 
        The rooms were musty and the pipes were old 
A7                                     D6  
        All that winter we shared a cold 
D#dim                                                   Em7 
        Drank all the orange juice that we cold hold 
A#dim     Eb7            
I   do   it   for your love 
Dbm7                            Adim 
        Found a rug in an old junk shop 
Db                                  Gb      
       And I brought it home to you 
Bbm                                            F#dim     
       A long the way the colors ran 
                     B7/5-        Bb7 
The orange bled the blue 
E7                                      Bm7 
The sting of reason the splash of tears 
A7                                                          D6 
      The northern and the southern hemisphere 
D#dim                                Em7 
       Love emerges and it disappears 
A#dim                  Am   
I do it for your love 
D9                     G 
I do it for your love
