The Whole of the Law
guitar chords lyrics
Intro:
C Em Am F [there's a little fill on the Em: (Em)-e-g-e-d-C-(Am)]
C g C g+ [g+ = 321003]
C Em Am F
I used to have the notion I could swim the length of the ocean
C g F F
If I knew you were waiting for me
C Em Am F
I used to have the notion I could swim the length of the ocean
C g F F
I'd plumb the depths of every sea for you
C G#5 (e) G5 (e) F g C
I'd es-cape from my chains, and I'll reach out for you
(C) Em Am F
Baby I'm in love with you
C Em Am F C
Baby, baby I'm in love with you I had to contact you
(C) Em Am F
Found out I was in love with you I had to contact
C g Am g C
That's it, that's the law, that's the whole of the law
(C) Em Am F
The whole of the law
C Em Am F
The whole of the law
C g Am g F C
That's it, that's the law, that's the whole of the law
[For the "escape from my chains" part, I'm not sure if those e notes are really there or
not but it sounds good.
Play the G#/G/F as power chords and pick up your index finger on the way to the next chord.]
