This is a really pretty and awesome song which I got asked
to learn and then teach to a friend, so I thought I would
send it along to anyone who cares to learn it! Hope everyone enjoys!!

Love Song
By Third Day
This song is mixed between a straight strum and some hammer
ons an finger picking, so where the tab stops, it's just
a regular strum to match what the song sounds like on the
album!

Just to be with the one he loves
Em C
How many times has He broken that promise
D G
It has never been done
C G
I've never climbed the highest mountain
C D
But I've walked the hill of Calvary

And just to be with you, I'll do anything
C G D
Theres no price I would not pay, no
G D
And just to be with you, I would give everything
C Em D
I would give my life away, yeah yeah
Em C
And I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
D G B7
Just to be with the one he loved
Em C
All of those dreams are an empty motion
D G
It could never be done
C G
I've never swam the deepest ocean,
C D
But I've walked upon the raging sea
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Bm

Chords: The only chords that need clarification are these.
The B7, it kindda matters the way you play it because
There is a slight tonal difference when played in
different places on the neck.
C/D B7 G/C
||||.| ||.||| ||||.|
|||||| |.|.|. ||.|||
|.|||| |||||| .||||.
|||||| |||||| ||||||
Also on this song, the C/D is really meant to be hammer-on and off between
that and a regular C chord. if you listen closely, you can hear this
throughout the verses.. Where the G goes to B7, there is always the run up as
shown in the intro. Thats about it!! Any comments Let me know please at
DueWestMan@aol.com.. Have fun!!
