Intro
C, G, Am, F

      C                                       G
Knew a young girl in my highschool years.  Never found herself short on tears
     Am                                     F
Til she found someone her heart could beat for

      C                                       G 
Then one day she thought she'd come clean.  Without sounding like a drama queen
     Am                                     F
Tell the one she loved just how she felt for her

         Em                     F            Am                     G
And her love said you must be crazy now, you know that we're both girls
         Em       F                    G
Further more you know I'm your best friend
        Em                   F            Am              G
And her love said I may be crazy but your also my whole world
        Em                   F            G
And my love for you could never find an end

  C                              G
So they started out rendezvous, weekend nights and after school
   Am                    F
Studying and making up routine
 C                                           G
And they loved to kiss and hold each other, always missing one another
  Am                                     F
Find the places other people have never seen
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/don_mccloskey/outlaw_love_crd.html ]
 Em                  F                Am          G
But the eyes of the law they were on top of their game
 Em                    F                  G
Surprise, surprise the folks they don't approve
 Em                                 F                Am             G
And when the kids at school caught word of it they started calling names
 Em                        F                    G
Except for the ones that thought it was pretty cool


CHORUS

Take my hand, living in an outlaw love

The only one you're thinking of is the one that you're holding in your arms

Yeah when your love's outside the law, there ain't nobody else at all

Didn't mean no disrespect, didn't mean no harm

They were just trying to follow their hearts

Like they were told from the very start


I was friendly with a kid who never dug school

Saw right through the rhymes and rules

He was every schoolgirl's secret crush

So he opted for the silver screen

Living out the American dream

Everything that he had didn't add up to much

Til he ran into a little sweetheart who was heading his way

Said your the prettiest girl I've ever seen

She said hey I think I like you when you're heading my way

Then again I'm only seventeen
 

CHORUS

Take my hand, living in an outlaw love

The only one you're thinking of is the one that you're holding in your arms

Yeah when your love's outside the law, there ain't nobody else at all

Didn't mean no disrespect, didn't mean no harm

They were just trying to follow their hearts

Like they were told from the very start


Knew a young girl with a ring on her finger

Loved her fiance and everything that he'd bring her

Was great but he never listened to a word she said

And it drove her stark crazy, sad and hurt

Started making eyes with the guy at work

And everything he said resounded in her head

When the rings came off you know the harshest words were spoke

Prayers were offered up to make it all alright

Families hung their heads and young dreams were broken

But the young lovers whispered on the telephone each night


CHORUS

I love you too, living in an outlaw love

The only one you're thinking of is the one that you're holding in your arms

Yeah when your love's outside the law, there ain't nobody else at all

Didn't mean no disrespect, didn't mean no harm

They were just trying to follow their hearts

Like they were told from the very start


And if following your heart should ever lead you astray

Then why so many people got so many things to say?

C'est la vie
