Intro.:  |(C/A)(C)|(D) |(G) |(G)(D)|

(G)Love comes unbidden, (D/F#)can't be for-(Em)bidden 
It (C)takes you and shakes you right (D)down to your (G)shoes 
It knows heartache and trial but ac-(D/F#)cepts no de-(Em)nail 
(C)You can't choose who you love, (D)love chooses (G)you (D)

In the (G)wink of an eye love (D/F#)looses an (Em)arrow 
We con-(C)troll it no more than the (D)flight of the (G)sparrow 
The swell of the tide or the (D/F#)light of the (Em)moon 
(C)You can't choose who you love, (D)love chooses (G)you (D) (G)

(Chorus)
Tell me now if I'm (C)wrong, are you (D)feline' the (G)same 
Are your feet on the (C)ground, (D) are you callin' my (G) name 
Do you lie awake (C)nights, please (D)say you (G)do 
'Cause you can't choose (Am)who you (C)love, (D)love chooses (G)you

Solo:  |(C/A)(C)|(D) |(G) |(G)(D)|

Love (G)cuts like a torch to a (D/F#)heart behind (Em)steel 
And (C)though you may hide it, love (D)knows how you (G)feel 
And though you may trespass on the (D/F#)laws of the (Em)land 
Your (C)heart has to follow when (D)love takes your (G)hand (D)

And it (G)seems we're two people with-(D/F#)in the same (Em)circle 
It's drawn (C)tighter and tighter till you're (D)all that I (G)see 
I'm full and I'm empty and (D/F#)you're pouring (Em)through me 
Like a (C)warm rain fallin' through the (D)leaves on a (G)tree (D) (G)

(Chorus)
Tell me now if I'm (C)wrong, are you (D)feline' the (G)same 
Are your feet on the (C)ground, (D) are you callin' my (G) name 
Do you lie awake (C)nights, please (D)say you (G)do 
'Cause you can't choose (Am)who you (C)love, (D)love chooses (G)you

(Tag)
No, you can't choose (Am)who you love (C) (D) --- 
Love chooses you (C) (G/B) (D) (G) -----
