Love Is Just A Four Letter Word chords by Connie Francis, Joan Baez
Verse 1
D
Seems like only yesterday
Em
I left my mind behind
D
Down in the gypsy café
Em
With a friend of a friend of mine
D
Who sat with a baby heavy
Am
on her knee
D
Yet spoke of life most free
Am
from slavery
D
With eyes that showed
Am
no trace of misery
D
A phrase in connection
Am
C
D
first with she occurred
Verse 2
D
That love is just a four- letter word
G
Verse 3
D
Outside a rambling store- front window
Em
Cats meowed to the break of day
D
Me, I kept my mouth shut
Em
To you I had no words to say
D
My experience was limited
Am
and underfed
D
Am
You were talking while I hid
D
Am
To the one who was the father of your kid
D
Am
You probably didn't think I did,
C
D
but I heard
Verse 4
Am
G
You say, that love is just a four- letter word
Verse 5
G
D
I said goodbye unnoticed
Em
Pushed forth into my own games
D
Drifting in and out of lifetimes
Em
Unmentionable by name
D
Am
Searching for my double, looking for
D
Am
Complete evaporation to the core
D
Am
Though I tried and failed at finding any door
D
I must have thought that there
Am
C
was nothing more absurd
Verse 6
D
Am
Than that love is just a
D
four- letter word
G
Verse 7
D
Though I never knew just
what you meant
Em
When you were speaking to your man
D
I can only think in terms of me
Em
And now I understand
D
Am
After waking enough times to think I see
D
The holy kiss that's supposed
Am
to last eternity
D
Am
Blow up in smoke, it's destiny
D
Am
Falls on strangers, travels free
D
Yes, I know now,
Am
traps are only set by me
D
And I do not really need
Am
D
C
D
to be assured
Verse 8
D
Am
D
That love is just a four- letter word
G
Verse 9
D
Strange it is to be beside you
Em
Many years the tables turned
D
You'd probably not believe me
Em
If I told you all I've learned
D
Am
And it is very, very weird indeed
D
Am
To hear words like forever, fleets
D
Of ships run through my mind,
Am
I cannot cheat
D
It's like looking in
Am
the teacher's face complete
D
I can say nothing to you but
Am
C
D
repeat what I heard
Verse 10
D
G
That love is just a four- letter word
