Love Is Not Against The Law
Derek Webb - Mockingbird

C
Politics or love
Em
Can make you blind or make you see
Am
Make you a slave or make you free
Am/G F
But only one does it all
C
And it's giving up your life
Em
For the ones you hate the most
Am
It's giving them your gown
D7
When they've taken your clothes
C Am Em F
It's learning to admit
C Am G F
When you've had a hand in setting them up
G/B F/C
In knocking them down
C F
Love is not against the law
Am D7
Love is not against the law
C G F C
Love, love, love
Are we defending life
When we just pick and choose
Lives acceptable to lose
And which ones to defend
‘Cause you cannot choose your friends
But you choose your enemies
And what if they were one
One and the same
Could you find a way
To love them both the same
To give them your name
