Lyrics

You’ve got to (C)give

a lit tle,

take a lit tle,

and let your poor heart break (F6)a (Ab)lit tle:

that’s the sto ry of,

that’s the glo ry of (CN.C.)love.

You’ve got to (Cmaj7)laugh

a lit tle,

cry a lit tle,

un til the (Gm)clouds (C)roll (F)by a (Fm6)lit tle:

that’s the (Asus2/4)sto ry (Am)of,

that’s the (G7sus4)glo (Bdim)ry of (C)love.

(Gb7)As (Fmaj9)long

as there’s

the (Fm6)two of us,

(Cmaj9)we’ve got the (G11)world and all its (Cmaj9)charms.

And (F)when

the world

is (Fm)through with (Fm6)us,

we’ve got each oth er’s (G11)arms.

You’ve got to (C)win

a lit tle,

lose a lit tle,

yes, and (Gm7)al ways

(F)have the blues a (Fm)lit tle:

that’s the (Am9)sto ry of

that’s the (G11)glo ry of (Em7)love.

(Cmaj9)That’s (Dm7)the (Cmaj7)sto ry (Dm7)of, (Fm(maj7))that’s (Fm6)the (Fm(maj7))glo ry (G11)of (CN.C.)love.
