G             C
Oh, gracious things
G
Why do you run away?
G                        C
And all good words and things escape this place
Am                  Em
Are these bodies to blame
Am
For playing the Midas game?
Am                   Em
Or am I just a shame upon the world?


[Pre-Chorus]
F
But I'm getting by
C
Just getting on


[Chorus]
G
But oh, this little love I hear so much about
C
I always give it back
G
Just give a little love, it's what they're talking about
C
I always give it back
Em                                  Am
Yeah, I give a lot just for a little love

[Verse 2]
G
Try not to scream
C                   G
When the visions of collisions awake you
G                                                  C
'Cause long gone are the nights of dreams when you rest your head
Am                            Em
And all you could hope for is light now
Am                             Em
And all you could wish for are distant colours
Am                                Em
Of better days you paint when you lay awake for hours


[Pre-Chorus]
F
You can say I'm wrong
C
Like you don't belong


[Chorus]
G
But oh, this little love I hear so much about
C
I always give it back
G
Just give a little love, it's what they're talking about
C
I always give it back
Em                                  Am
Yeah, I give a lot just for a little love


[Bridge]
G   C
Ah, ooh
Em  Am
Ah, ooh


[Pre-Chorus]
F
But I'm getting by
C
Just getting on


[Chorus]
G
But oh, this little love I hear so much about
C
I always give it back
G
Just give a little love, I keep dreaming about
C
I never feel that
G
But oh, this little love I hear so much about
C
I always give it back
G
Just give a little love, I keep dreaming about
C
I never feel that
Em                          Am
But I give a lot just for a little love
