Your love is like a chunk of gold

Hard to gain, and hard to hold

Like a rose that's soft to touch
Bb A Dm
Love has gone, and it hurts so much
[chorus]
Dm G Dm G Dm G A
Well and Why
Bb A
Must the same love that made me laugh
Dm
Make me cry?
[Bridge]
Dm
Well now you think of love as sitting on a mountain
A
Think of it as being a great big rock
Dm
Won't you think before you started to roll it down
A N.C.
Because once you start it, you can't make it stop
[Verse 2]
Dm A
I've given all I have to give
Bb A
And if you don't want me
Dm
I don't want to live
[chorus]

Just cryin' like a weeping willow
