Intro: 

Dsus2-D  Em  Asus4-A  Dsus2-D  A7 


verse 1: 

D                 Dsus2-D 
I’ve heard it said 
Em 
And I believe 
     Asus4                         A 
If a man   has nothing else; if a man has only love 
Dsus2-D             A7 
He has all he needs 
      D            Dsus2-D 
Well I’ve got love 
Em 
Enough for two 
    Asus4                                             
The only  thing that I need now 
     A                       D         D-C-G  
The only thing that I don’t have is you 



G         D/F#    Em    A7 
But I can see  it perfect 
   D                D7 
In my mind all the time 
G               D/F#      Em     A7 
And that’s what keeps me holding on 
   D                     D7 
Pretending you’re still mine 
G   D/F#             Em      A7 
I wouldn’t miss you half as much 
       D      D/F#    Em   Gm/A# 
I can make it on   my own 
D        Asus4   -   A   D 
If a man could live  on love alone 



Interlude: 

Dsus2-D  Em  Asus4-A 


verse 2: 

D                 Dsus2-D 
Sure I like my job 
Em 
Of course I love my friends 
             Asus4                         A 
But what I’d really love is waking up one day to find we’ve always had 
Dsus2-D            A7 
What should’ve been 
        D                     Dsus2-D 
‘Cause all the feeling’s there 
Em 
God I miss your touch 
   Asus4                             A                                     
Is wanting you and needing you here with me  
               D           D-C-G 
Really asking all that much 


Chorus  (replace “But” with “When”) 


Coda: 

     Em         Asus4    A      Em   Gm   D 
If a man could live   on love alone
