Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

you said you’d (Bb6)give to me, soon as (Eb7)you were free?

Will it (Ab6)ev er be?

Where is the love?

You told me that you did n’t (Ab6)love of him,

and you were gon na say good (Bb)bye.

But if you real ly did n’t (Ab6)mean is (Dbmaj7)it,

why did you have to lie?

Where is the love?

you said was (Bb6)mine, all mine ’til the (Eb7)end of time?

Was it (Ab6)just a lie?

Where is the love?

If you had had a sud den (Ab6)change of heart,

I wish that you would tell me (Bb)so.

Don’t leave me hang ing on to (Ab6)prom is (Dbmaj7)es,

why did you have to lie?

You’ve got to let me know.

Do do do do,

do.

Oh, how I wish I’d nev er (Ab6)met you.

I guess it must have been my (Bb)fate

to fall in love with some one (Ab6)else ’s (Dbmaj7)love.

All I can do is wait.

That’s all I can do, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?
