Writing a love song ain’t easy to do,

    F            C            F            G
It needs to be sweet, and it needs to be true.

     Am             G/B              C           F
But can't find the words, and don’t know what to do

My verses don’t rhyme and my lyrics are cheesy,

   F                           G            C
I really thought writing this song would be easy

       F            G           C     C/B Am
I can tap out the rhythm, and whistle the tune,

I can’t find the words to describe your sweet heart,

        F                         G           C
Or to share that I think you are kindly and smart,

    F           G               C      C/B Am
Or how all my dreams are ‘bout nothing but you.

Every singer who’s ever been heard

     F                      G      C
Has sung about lovers with poetic words

   F            G            C     C/B Am
I wish I could sing a sweet tune about you

But writing a love song ain’t easy to do

 C                      G              C
Maybe I'll just sing a song ‘bout your eyes,

    F                           G              C
Or how your soft fingers send chills down my spine,

    F             G               C    C/B  Am
Or how nice your hair smells, or how I love you,

But I just can't get started, and don't have  a clue

       C        Am             G        C
Cuz’ writing a love song ain’t easy to do,

         D                     G         D
You’re gentle and loving and clever and calm,

     G         D            G             A
So why am I struggling to write you this song?

      Bm           A        D               G
Oh I just want my music to make your heart beat,

      D        Bm              A        D
But writing a love song ain’t easy for me.
