A
A broken man moves slowly down the sidewalk
E
Humbled by the favours he must seek
A
From those that he encounters on his walk through misery
D A
Who are rich enough to hurt just as they please
A E A
If not for love I could be one of these
A
An old man on a park bench stares with envy
E
At a couple with their children on their knees
A
While across the park a young man is caught by the police
D A
Stealin' for a habit he must feed
A E A
And if not for love I could be one of these
D A
I could be one of these or so many many more
E
Always at the beck and call of shame
A D
I'm thankful I was called by love to walk among the happy
A E A
But if not for you love wouldn't know my name
A
A man of squander talents vainly calls on
E
His gift of God now straining through his soul
A
While in the crowd before him a jealous friend awaits
D A
The moments that he can no longer please
A E A
And if not for love I could be one of these
D A
I could be one of these or so many many more
E
Always at the beck and call of shame
A D
I'm thankful I was called by love to walk among the happy
A E A
But if not for you love wouldn't know my name
A E E
Yes if not for love I could be one of these
