This tab is 100% correct. I pulled it from the original songbook of "Verities & published in 1974. It tooks me two years to find this book, and I bought it just for this song. luck! CHORDS USED Am7 x02010 D7 xx0212 C x32010 G 3x0003 (or just regular G 320033) Dm7/G 3x0211 Em 022000 "I WANNA LEARN A LOVE SONG" - Verities & Balderdash Words and Music by HARRY CHAPIN VERSE 1 Am7 I come fresh from the street, D7 C Am7 G fast on my feet, kinda lean and lazy; Am7 D7 not much meat on my bones, and a whole lot alone, C Am7 G and more than a little bit crazy. Dm7/G C The old six string was all I had Am7 Em to keep my belly still, Am7 D7 and for each full hour lesson I gave C Am7 G I got a crisp ten dollar bill. VERSE 2 Am7 D7 She was married for seven years C Am7 G to a concrete castle king. Am7 D7 She said she wanted to learn to play the guitar C Am7 G and to hear her children sing. Dm7/G C So I'd show up about once a week Am7 Em in my faded tight-legged jeans Am7 D7 with a backlog full of hobo stories C and dilapidated dreams. CHORUS G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song full of happy things." D C She said, "I wanna learn a love song; won't you let me hear you sing?" G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song, I wanna hear you play." D C Am7 G She said, "I wanna learn a love song before you go away." (The rest of the song is played in the same pattern. VERSE 3 has the same chords as 1, VERSE 4 and VERSE 5 have the same chords as VERSE 2, and the CHORUS chords are all the same.) VERSE 3 So I tried to teach her a couple of chords and an easy melody; but it always turned out she'd rather listen to my guitar and me. I could hear her old man laughing in the den, playing stud poker with the boys while I sang so soft in the living room, to scared to make much noise. VERSE 4 I came one week and the den was dark and she met me at the door. And we sat on the couch and we sang and talked till I could not sing no more. The silence kept on building, her eyes grew much too wide; and I could her both of our heartbeats, but there was no place to hide. CHORUS G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song full of happy things." D C She said, "I wanna learn a love song; won't you let me hear you sing?" G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song, I wanna hear you play." D C Am7 G She said, "I wanna learn a love song before you go away." VERSE 5 Well, I guess you know what happened, God, I never been so clean. Yes, I feel like I'm working in a Hollywood movie or living out a good bad dream. And all them pinup girls in that tinsel world never touched me like she can; it took another man's wife in the real world life to make this boy a man. CHORUS G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song full of happy things." D C She said, "I wanna learn a love song; won't you let me hear you sing?" G Am7 She said, "I wanna learn a love song, I wanna hear you play." D C Am7 G She said, "I wanna learn a love song before you go away." C Am7 G C Am7 (let ring out) I guess you know I stayed.
