Strum
D-DU-UDU
Ive  always loved  your love
In  and out, up  and down
If  your love was a ship,
Id  pull your anchor and Id christen  it.
 Im in love  with love, (Im in love)
 And it broke  me in two (in two)
 Im in love  with love,
Look  out babe its going to break you, too
 same as 1)
 I pull your ship across the ocean wide
 Hold my breath and dive, dive, dive
 Held me at the bottom and ask me why
 Open my mouth and Id tell them why, cuz
 Im in love with love, (Im in love)
 And it broke me in two (in two)
 Im in love with love,
 So look out, babe, its going to break you, too
 I am not sure what's going on here but I play some Am and Em and it sounds alright!
 Were huddled  on the benches
 Were sayin  our prayers
 Two lovers  in the mist
 With the salt  in their hair
 Im in love,  Im in love
 And it broke  me in two
 Im in love  Im in love,
 Its gonna break  you, too, yes it will
 The waves are breaking in a foreign tongue
 Understand but feeling numb
 Your love was a ship,
 Id pull your anchor and hang on to it
 Chorus twice and then back to intro
