I Wear Your Love

Capo 3
Intro: GG
Verse 1: CG The things I've collected, bought or selected CG The clutter that fills up my rooms CG I can lock up and leave it, never retrieve it. CAmG Leave nothing but my love for you. B7CAm7DD Let the storm winds blow, I will not be cold.
Refrain: GC I wear your love DGDC Thrown over my shoulders like a blanket of down GC I wear your love DGDC like a bright suit of armor re-flecting the sun GCB7C On the chilliest night though I travel light. GCDGG It is always enough for I wear your love.
Verse 2: CG You watched without knowing where I was going CG Trusting the vision I'd found CG For if dreams were a fire, I had desire CAmG That could burn this old house to the ground. B7CAm7D So I walk quite free, for sur-rounding me
Refrain: GC I wear your love DGDC like a scarf that I borrowed that still holds your per-fume. GC I wear your love DGDC pulled tight as I'm sleeping under a cold lovers's moon. GCB7C On the chilliest night though I travel light. GCDGG It is always enough for I wear your love.
Bridge:
FCDm Don't you know, can't you see AmDm Head to toe it is covering me Dm7CDm Like a stone, the oceans's tide E Nothing can hurt me or turn me aside.
Refrain: AD For I wear your love EAED Thrown over my shoulders like a blanket of down. AD I wear your love EAED Like a badge of de-votion of love and be-yond. ADC#7D On the chilliest night though I travel light. ADEA It is always e-nough for I wear your love. ADE (hold) AD - A - D - A It is always e-nough for I wear your love.
