Verse 1
the power of love now.
Bb
Ab
I'm gonna tell you what love can do.
You know when they say love makes
the world go round.
That's the truth.
Now I want your imagination.
I want you to travel with me.
Oh, come on, come on, come on.
This young man was raised
in the hills of
Tennessee.
When he reached the age of maturity,
he moved to the west coast, and he fell in love when
Bb
Ab
he got out there, to this young girl, and then the inevitable,
became engaged and they
were married, oh,
the power of love was upon him.
But you see girls,
Bb
Ab
I don't mean to come down on you.
Bb
Ab
But this man loved this woman so he
could see no wrong, no, no, no.
He spent his last dime on
the woman because he loved her.
Bb
Ab
You know girls, you can take love and kindness sometimes for weakness,
and she took it for
granted and she tipped out
on it.
She said, ain't nobody gonna believe
what you tell them, no way.
Fool.
Oh yeah girls, you do like that sometimes.
come home. I don't have
to tell you what he found.
Bb
Ab
Oh, it hurt him so bad.
He said,
Bb
Ab
baby, mama, why?
That's all he could say.
But she said, oh, gone fool,
you doing it.
But the man wasn't doing it, but that's
the only excuse she could give him.
He said,
mama I can't take it I got to leave you I'm
gonna leave you well she tried to
straighten up she said she was
gonna straighten up she got a little job to
have it my way with the bills too
but that was just a sham
because he found it again and again and
Bb
Ab
sev en times he left this woman and
seven times he came back and he had
taken all that he could stand and the
Eight times that this went down, he said,
mama, I got to go.
Bb
Ab
He said, I'm leaving my heart right here.
Oh, I don't want to go,
but I got to leave you, mama.
And he was going down the highway.
I guess it was around 3 .30 in the morning.
He could hardly see the road,
the tears in his eyes.
He could barely see the sign and read on the side of the road,
the next town 125 miles away.
And these very words came into his mind.
He said,
By the time I get to
