For the love, for the love 
         B  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love 
        Ebm           B Gb 
For the love, for the love 
         B  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love 

Ebm 
I used to pray to a glossy page 
  B           Gb        Abm 
A cut out from a magazine 
Ebm 
I was afraid of real things 
      B           Gb                 Abm 
And I couldn't get to sleep to dream 
Ebm 
My mom came out and I was mean 
        B          Gb           Abm 
I said, what a slap in the face 
Ebm 
Then she got sick and lost her hair 
             B           Gb                 Abm 
And then her partner died of the same thing 

Ebm 
My mom survived, but we lost Joan 
    B        Gb            Abm 
The day before New York legalized love 
Ebm 
And the streets were full of young and old 
    B         Gb           Abm 
And shiny new rings exchanged in gold 

        Ebm           B Gb 
For the love, for the love 
         Abm  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love 
        Ebm           B Gb 
For the love, for the love 
         Abm  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love 

Ebm 
I kissed a girl and felt no shame 
     B           Gb    Abm 
With Katy on the radio 
Ebm 
I told my mom that we were the same 
    B              Gb         Abm 
She said we've got ways to go 

Ebm 
And I've known love that's wider than 
     B           Gb        Abm 
The place in the middle where it's painted red 
Ebm                                     B 
And I believe that fear is weaker than love 
          Gb              Abm 
Just like the magazine read 

        Ebm           B Gb 
For the love, for the love

For the love, for the love

For the love, for the love 
         B  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love 

      B9        Gb              
This life is imperfect 
     B9       Gb          
And love is a mess 
           B9              Gb                  
I want the right to fuck it up 
           B9     Gb 
Just like anybody else 
                     Abm 
Just like everybody else 

        Ebm           B Gb 
For the love, for the love

For the love, for the love

For the love, for the love 
         B  Gb      Abm 
For the love, for the love
