Tap any chord in the song to see its shape. The boxes are drawn right-handed; Lefty flips them, which is how I actually play. Use − and + to move the whole song into a key that suits your voice.
Transposed. The chord names and boxes have moved; any tab on this page is still written for the original key.
Let me tell you of love
It's only what you shake up
You don't have to hold out for better days
Just live your change
Nothing's enough as we pray for more from above
Speaking of love, I've given up
These days we settle for less
But you can live your change
Sometimes, love don’t last for ever
You won’t have to call my name, I’ll be there
Sometimes, you won’t have to hold on for better days
While all love inside becomes a part
Of someone to open up your heart
I can't open my heart to just anyone
Finding it hard to breathe at all
Chorus TwoSame as Chorus One. Tap to open.
Sometimes, love don’t last for ever
You won’t have to call my name, I’ll be there
Sometimes, you won’t have to hold on for better days
I sit here waiting for my break in life
While all the well-lit doors are closing
Lying, waiting for my better days
Can't seem to change
