Lyrics

One True Love

Verse 1 (10th and Pine)
G Em
It was summer in the city
D C
And buildings gave us shade
G Em
And we hadn't yet conceived of
D C
The list of plans that we have made
G Em
With the mattress on hardwood
D C
And the noise down on the street
G Em
I will lay my head beside you
D C
And tell you that you will always be

Chorus
G C
You will always be
G C
You will always be
G C D G
You will always be my one true love


Verse 2 (Haycock)
The nights we spent together
When the stars lit up the sky
With the gray rocks all around us
And the red tails flying by
And the mountain stood beside us
the moon shown thru the trees
I would lay my head beside you
And tell you that you will always be


Chorus
G C
You will always be
G C
You will always be
G C D G
You will always be my one true love


Verse 3 (Florida)
Now the sun pours in like honey
And the view goes on for days
And the kids are interrupting
The naked Sunday plans that we made
And we look for art and beauty
Just as long as it is free
And we walk down by the water
And I tell you that you will always be

Chorus
G C
You will always be
G C
You will always be
G C D G
You will always be my one true love


Last verse
When the stars begin to burn out
And that view begins to fade
And there's nothing to check off
That list of plans we've made
When the the buildings start to crumble
And the mountain tumbles to the sea
I will down there beside you
And whisper you will always be...


Chorus
G C
You will always be
G C
You will always be
G C D G
You will always be my one true love

Chorus
G C
You will always be
G C
You will always be
G C D G
You will always be my one true love
