As recorded by Lucinda Williams (From the 2024 Album THE POWER OF THE HEART: A TRIBUTE TO LOU REED) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
          F
Legendary hearts

            G
Tearing us apart

                      C
With stories of their love

                         F
Their great transcendent loves

                        Dm
While we stand here and fight

Dm
And lose another night

          G
Of legendary love
[Verse 2]
          F
Legendary loves

               G
Haunt me in my sleep

            C
Promises to keep

                    Am
I never should have made

                   F
I can't live up to this

                    Dm
I'm good for just a kiss

           G     F Em D
Not legendary love
[Bridge]
F                 G
Romeo, oh, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo

C
He's in a car or at a bar

   F
Or churning his blood with an impure drug

Dm                                  G
He's in the past and seemingly lost forever

          C
He worked hard at being good

              F
But his basic soul was stained not pure

            G
And when he took his bow

                       F Em
No audience was clapping
[Verse 3]
Dm        F
Legendary hearts

             G
Tear us all apart

                  C
Make our emotions bleed

              Am
Crying out in need

             F
No legendary love

                Dm
Is coming from above

                        G
It's in this room right now
[Outro]
                  F
And you've got to fight

   G           C
To make what's right

              F
You've got to fight

   G           C
To make what's right

              F
You've got to fight

   G           C
To make what's right

              F                  G         C
You've got to fight to keep your legendary love

              F                  G         C
You've got to fight to keep your legendary love

          F     G         C
Legendary love, legendary love

          F     G         C
Legendary love, legendary love
