This is tabbed to be similar to the live version found on "The Essential John Denver", though the suggested intro is different. Sometimes John played this song in E (D, Capo 2), so do whatever suits your voice. Additionally, some of his performances used different lyrics in the second time through the chorus, but these are the lyrics from the aforementioned album. Also, the D/B may be replaced with Bm, especially if strumming the song, but I prefer the D/B when finger-picking. I played with some of the Em variations to highlight bass notes - feel free to just play regular Em chords if you want to keep it simple. Finally, I prefer a simpler ending, and that's what I've tabbed. Purists can listen to recordings and tab their own endings. :) Is It Love? John Denver Capo 1 Suggested intro: D D/B G Em Em/G Em/B A7 D

Verse 1: I ^Dknow how it ^D/Bfeels to be ^Ghead over ^Emheels, To be ^Emlost in true ^Em/Blove and the ^A7light of the ^Dmoon. When ^Deverything ^D/Bseems to be ^Gcoming up ^Emroses; ^EmEvery word ^Em/Bseems to be ^Arhyming with ^DJune. ^EmSuddenly all of your ^A7dreams have come ^Dtrue; ^EmHappiness ^A7lives in your ^Dheart. ^EmThen out of nowhere, ^A7one becomes ^Dtwo; ^EmEverything seems to be ^Cfalling a^Apart.

Chorus 1: (Is it ^Dlove) when your ^D/Bheart ^Gfeels like it's ^Abroken, (Is it ^Dlove) and you ^D/Bjust can't ^Gtake any ^Amore? (Is it ^Dlove) when there's ^D/Bnothing ^Gleft to be ^Aspoken, (Is it ^Dlove) and there's ^D/Bnothing worth ^Glistening ^Afor? D D/B G A (D D/B G A) (2nd time: D D Dsus2 D, to Bridge) (Is it love?) Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh

Verse 2: I ^Dknow what it ^D/Bmeans to get ^Gcaught up in ^Emdreams And in ^Emprayers that are ^Em/Banswered with ^Aeach passing ^Dday. When ^Dloving and ^D/Blaughter are ^Gbirds of a ^Emfeather, And ^Emsharing and ^Em/Bcaring just ^Aone simple ^Dway. ^EmYou know you'll never ^A7be all a^Dlone; ^EmSomeone will ^A7always be ^Dnear. Then ^Emyou turn around and your ^A7best friend is ^Dgone; Oh, ^Emwhere do they go when they ^Cjust disa^Appear?

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Bridge: ^EmThere's no answer; there ^Aseems to be nothing to ^Dsay. ^EmIn your anger, would ^Ayou even hear any^Dway? ^EmIt was magic, and ^Asomehow you've broken the ^Dspell. ^EmIt was heaven, but ^Em7somehow it's turned into ^Ahell.

Chorus 2: (Is it ^Dlove) when you ^D/Bknow that your ^Gheart has been ^Abroken? (Is it ^Dlove) and you ^D/Bjust can't ^Gtake it any^Amore? (Is it ^Dlove) when you ^D/Bfeel more than ^Gyou could i^Amagine, (Is it ^Dlove) now there's ^D/Bnothing that's ^Gworth living ^Afor? (Is it ^Dlove) woo-^D/Booh-ooh-^Gooh-^Aooh; is it ^Dlov^D/Be? ^G ^A ^D
