---- Perhaps Love - John Denver ---- Tabbed By: JohnnySZS Notes: Hello, this is my first tab I made mostly by ear from videos. Chords courtesy of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjWg-f_V-GE This is song is very simple once you know the chords and sounds great when you fingerpick it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Any time your playing a chord, you can switch up the top three notes. | | Example: For a C chord, instead of playing C, G, high C, then high E, | | you can play C, G, high E, then high C, or C, high E, high C, then G. | | It doesn't really matter. It's up to your interpretation. | | Mixing it up sounds nice. | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hope you enjoy!

Perhaps l^Gove is like a r^Emesting place A sh^Celter from the st^Dorm It e^Gxists to give you c^Emomfort It is t^Chere to keep you ^Dwarm A^Bmnd in those ^Emtimes of trouble When ^Cyou are most a^Dlone The m^Am7emory of l^D7ove will bring you h^Gome

>TO VERSE 2 VERSE 2: Perhaps love is like a window Perhaps an open door It invites you to come closer It wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself And don't know what to do The memory of love will see you through >TO CHORUS VERSE 3: Perhaps love is like the ocean Full of conflict, full of pain Like a fire when it's cold outside Thunder when it rains If I should live forever And all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you >TO CHORUS 2 CHORUS:

Oh L^Bmove to some is ^Emlike a cloud To s^Come as s^Dtrong as s^Gteel For ^Bmsome a way of l^Emiving For s^Come a w^Day to f^Geel And s^Bmome say love is ^Emholding on And s^Come say l^Detting g^Go And s^Bmome say love is ^Emeverything S^Am7ome say they don't k^D7now

>TO VERSE 3 CHORUS 2: And some say love is holding on And some say letting go And some say love is everything Some say they don't know >TO VERSE 3 AND FINISH
