#THIS IS LOVE (Mary Chapin Carpenter)

[Capo 5; tune guitar to DADF#AD (open D). I'm not 100% sure of the tuning,
but I'm at least 90% sure.]
[D000000; D(9)002000; Dsus000100; G(9)020100;
Em7(4)220100; D/F#400300; Gsus9550300; Asusx02300.]
[It sounds like there's a Bm chord in the guitar solo. If so, play it
like this: x20020.]

[G(9][intro[G(9]] [G(9] [G(9] [D] [D(9] [Dsus] [D] [D] [D(9] [Dsus] [D]
If [D]you ever need to [D(9]hear a voice [Dsus]in the middle of the n[Dsus]ight
when it [D]seems so bl[D(9]ack outside [Dsus]that you[Dsus] can't remember
l[G(9]ight ever sh[G(9]one on you[G(9] or the ones you [G(9]love in th[D]is or [D(9]another l[Dsus]ifetime[D]
And the voice you need to hear is the true and the trusted kind, with a soft
familiar rhythm in these swirling, unsure times, when the waves are lapping in
and you're not sure you can swim, well here's the lifeline
If [Em7(4]you ever need [Em7(4]to feel a h[Em7(4]and take up your [Em7(4]own
[D/F#]When you least exp[D/F#]ect but want it m[D/F#]ore than you've e[D/F#]ver known

This i[D]s lo[D(9]ve [Dsus] [D] [D] [D(9] [Dsus] [D]
If you ever need some proof that time can heal your wounds, just step
inside my heart and walk around these rooms; where the shadows used to be,
you can feel as well as see how peace can hover
Time's been here to fix what's broken with its power and the love that
smashed us both to bits spent its last few hours calling out your name,
and I thought, this is the kind of pain from which we don't recover
But I'm standing here now with my heart held out to you
You would have thought a miracle was all that got us through
Well baby, all I know, all I know is I'm still standing
And this is love, all that ever was and will be
This is love, standing up for you baby, standing up for me
[G(9] And I s[G(9]ee you st[G(9]ill and there's this [G(9]catch in my
thr[Asus]oat; And I j[Asus]ust swallow h[Asus]ard till it le[Asus]aves me
[G(9] There's [G(9]nothing in this w[G(9]orld that can cha[G(9]nge what we know
[Asus]Still I kn[Asus]ow I am here[Asus] if you e[Asus]ver need m[G(9]e [G(9] [G(9] [G(9]
And this i[D]s lo[D(9]ve [gui[Dsus]tar sol[D]o] [Em7(4] [Em7(4] [Asus] [Asus]

If you ever think of me, let it be around twilight, when the world has
settled down, and the last round of sunlight is waning in the sky as you
sit and watch the night descending
A car will pass out front with lovers at the wheel, a dog will bark out
back, and children's voices peal over and under the air, you've been there,
lost in the remembering
If you ever wish for things that are only in the past
Just remember that the wrong things aren't supposed to last
Baby, it's over and done, the rest is gonna come when you let it
And this is love, all that ever was and will be
This is love, when you let it baby, if you let it now
This is love, all that ever was and can be
This is love
[Repeat D D(9) Dsus D, and fade.]
