[Verse 1]
C Dm F G
Like a... square peg in a round hole,
C Dm F G
Like a... harp with - out it's strings,
C Dm F G
Like a sailor who sails no o - ceans,
C Dm F G
Like a... bird that has no wings!


[Verse 2]
C G F G
(Without love...) ...I am a desert,
C G F G
(Without love...) ...my light is dim,
C G F G
(Without love...) ...I have no treasures,
C G F G
(Without love...) ...I cannot win!


[Verse 3]
Am F
Without love...we are like ships in the night,
Am G
Without love, selling our souls down the river,
Em F G G4 G
Sailing away, and for - ever our pleasure is blue!

[Verse 4]
C Dm F G
Like a... dream that has no dreamer,
C Dm F G
Like a cloud with - out a sky,
C Dm F G
Like the truth with no be - lie - ver,
C Dm F G
Like a mother with - out a child!


[Verse 5]
C G F G
(Without love...) ...I have no pleasures,
C G F
(Without love...) ...my light is dim,
C G F G
(Without love...) ...I have no treasures,
C G F
(Without love...) ...my chance is slim!


[Verse 6]
Am F
Without love...we are like ships in the night,
Am G
Without love, selling our souls down the river,
Em F G G4 G
Sailing away, and for - ever our pleasure is blue!
