Love Is Not An Answer by John Moreland
Love Is Not An Answer
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
D G
[Verse 1]
D G D
There's a truth I need to trust
G D G D G
But I can't remember how
D G D
It's stuck there in the stillness
G D G D G
But the noise is too damn loud
G D/F# Em
And I thought I was an actor
G D/F# Em
I'd let my colors show
D G
But what if I'm just a bastard
D G
Laying low inside your radio
D G D G
[Verse 2]
D G D
Won't you help me make a fist
G D G D
And choke the poison back
G D G D
We'll close our eyes each godforsaken time
G D G D G
The world gets painted black
G D/F# Em
And we'll wonder where it comes from
G D/F# Em
How the pain cuts through the pride
D G D
When the tools we use to fix ourselves
G D G D G
Are just the fools we stood beside
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em
But love is not an answer
G D/F# Em
Oh, I don't need an answer
D G D G
I need you
[Verse 3]
D G D
Devotion strong but tender
G D G D G
Devotion dark and cold
D G D
Devotion like an anchor
G D G D G
Swinging from my soul
G D/F# Em
I used to weigh the distance
G D/F# Em
I used to miss my cues
D G D
I used to say I love you
G D G D G
Then wonder who I'm talking to
{Chorus]
G D/F# Em
But love is not an answer
G D/F# Em
Oh, I don't need an answer
D G D G
I need you
[Piano solo]
with verse chords.
[Verse 4]
D G D
So bring my all your questions
G D G D G
Bring me all your doubts
D G D
Don't let me meet the devil
G D G D G
That I sang those songs about
G D/F# Em
Cause the hounds of youth are howling
G D/F# Em
And you're all I've got to trust
D G D
With heaven's lonely ghetto
G D G D
Up there crying down on us
[Chorus]
G D/F# Em
But love is not an answer
G D/F# Em
Oh, I don't need an answer
D G D G
I need you
G D/F# Em
Yeah, love is not an answer
G D/F# Em
Oh, love is not an answer
G D/F# Em
Oh, I don't need an answer
D G D G
I need you
D G D G
I need you
