Intro: Dm 

                                              C           G  
Tell me what you see, is it close to what you dreamed? 
            Dm              C         G 
If I play a part can I be redeemed? 
   Dm                             C               G 
We pore through the passages from leather volumed shelves 
         Dm                      C               G 
But they only leave us wondering, can we find ourselves 
               Dm 
In the book of love? 
C                 G 
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh 
               Dm      C   G 
In the book of love? 


                Dm                C      G 
Looking for the one, waiting on a day 
                 Dm                       C         G 
Countless dinner parties, all the games we play 
Dm                           C              G 
All for some processional, a solemn wedding vow 
  Dm                              C            G 
A picture in a picture frame that Beauty can allow 
               Dm 
In the book of love? 
C                 G 
Oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh 
               Dm        C   G 
In the book of love? 


Instrumental:  F  Am  C  G   (3x) 


Bridge: 
    Dm                        C           G 
And love becomes a temple and we begin to fear 
        Dm                    C                  G 
That an unfeeling oracle will say,    You did come near, 
                        D7 
But you are not welcome here.� 


N.C.          Dm                          C        G 
This is who I am, all the places that I've been 
                   Dm                             C      G 
The fondness and regret, every love that I've been in 
    Dm                                  C                     G 
And I've played all the characters, the fool, the friend, the wife 
       Dm                             C           G 
And no matter what the ending is, the story of my life
