[Verse 1]
A F#m
Perhaps love is like a resting place
Bm E
A shelter from the storm
A F#m
It exists to give you comfort
Bm E
It is there to keep you warm
C#m F#m
And in those times of trouble
D E
When you are most alone
Bm E A E
The memory of love will bring you home
[Verse 2]
A F#m
Perhaps love is like a window
Bm E
Perhaps an open door
A F#m
It invites you to come closer
Bm E
It wants to show you more
C#m F#m
And even if you lose yourself
D E
And don’t know what to do
Bm E A
The memory of love will see you through
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
Oh Love to some is like a cloud
D E A
To some as strong as steel
C#m F#m
For some a way of living
D E A
For some a way to feel
C#m F#m
And some say love is holding on
D E A
And some say letting go
C#m F#m
And some say love is everything
Bm E
Some say they don’t know
[Verse 3]
A F#m
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Bm E
Full of conflict, full of pain
A F#m
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
Bm E
Thunder when it rains
C#m F#m
If I should live forever
D E
And all my dreams come true
Bm E A
My memories of love will be of you
[Break]
C#m F#m D E A
C#m F#m D E A
[Chorus]
C#m F#m
And some say love is holding on
D E A
And some say letting go
C#m F#m
And some say love is everything
Bm E
Some say they don’t know
[Verse 4]
A F#m
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Bm E
Full of conflict, full of pain
A F#m
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
Bm E
Thunder when it rains
C#m F#m
If I should live forever
D E
And all my dreams come true
Bm E A
My memories of love will be of you
[Outro]
F#m D E A

This sounds really good if you play finger style to keep a soft feel to the song. Place your index, middle, and ring finger on the g, b, and high e string respectively and thumb on the base note.
To Play: Pluck all 4 fingers to play the chord followed by your index, middle, and then ring finger (g, b, and then high e string).
