A Thing Called Love
Jerry Reed recorded this in the key of D
and detuned the E string '6th' to D to play the parts
[D]Six foot six he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and fortyfive pounds
But I saw that [Em7]giant of a man brought [A7]down
To his knees by [D]love
He was the kind of a man who would gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him [Em7]crying like a little whipped [A7]pup
Because of [D]love
Chs
Can't see it with your eyes, hold it with your [G]hands
But like the [F#m7]wind that covers our [Bm7]land
Strong enough to [G]rule the heart of any man
This thing called [A7]love
It'll lift you [D]up, never let you [G]down
Take your [F#m7]world and turn it all [Bm7]around[8 count rest-resume play
on 'time' ]
Ever since [D]time nothin's ever been [A7]found
Stronger than [D]love
Most men are like me, they struggle and doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with living to worry about
A thing called love
But when I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young child to her breast
I thank God the world's been blessed
With a thing called love
