(Dmaj7)Love is (C#m7)high er than a moun tain.

Love is thick er than (F#m)wa ter.

(Dmaj7)You are this dream er’s (C#m7)on ly dream: heav en’s (F#m)an gel, dev il’s daugh ter.

(Bm9)Say, my mind, should I go with her on (Amaj7)si lent nights, she’ll drive me cra zy (Dmaj7)in the end and I der should leave this (Bm9)par a dise, but I can’t leave her (F#m)while I need her more than she needs you.

That’s what I’m liv ing for.

(Dmaj7)Love is (C#m7)high er than a moun tain.

Love is thick er than (F#m)wa ter.

(Dmaj7)You are this dream er’s (C#m7)on ly dream: heav en’s (F#m)an gel, dev il’s daugh ter.

(Bm9)Say, my thought, should I find out she don’t (Amaj7)care at all, she’ll leave me cry ing (Dmaj7)in the end, and wan der ing through the (Bm9)af ter glow, but I can’t leave her (F#m)while I need her more than she needs you.

That’s what I’m pray ing for.

(Dmaj7)Love is (C#m7)high er than a moun tain.

Love is thick er than (F#m)wa ter.

(Dmaj7)You are this dream er’s (C#m7)on ly dream: heav en’s (F#m)an gel, dev il’s daugh ter.
