[Verse 1]
G             D        C       D
Jumped out of bed this morning

       G      D      C
With a smile upon my face

     G           D            C   D
It's still there while I shave my chin

        G        D           C
But the reason's hard for me to trace

       G  D                C   D
I cook myself some breakfast

          G      D        C
Have some coffee while I muse

      G          D               C     D
Where could this smile have come from?

       G      D      C
It's a muscle that I rarely use
[Pre-Chorus]
         Em     G               C G
Call the doctor with my symptoms

         Em        G      C
Should I spend all day in bed?

Em        G            C      G
Can you explain what's ailing me?

    Am              D
And this is what my doctor said
[Chorus]
        G
If it's love, it has no season

        Em
If it's love, there is no cure

        Am
If it's love, it won't see a reason

       D
And of this you can be sure

        G
If it's love, you must surrender (You must surrender)

        Em
If it's love, that's turned you 'round (That's turned you 'round)

        Am
If it's love, the odds are slender (The odds are)

        D
If it's love, you're sunk without a trace

    D                (C)
One case can bring you down

[Verse 2]
    G         D          G       D
You smile and your heart skips a beat

    G      D           C
You hear a church bell chiming

  G            D       G       D
A sound that's ringing in your ears

     G        D         C
Will set your heartbeat climbing
[Pre-Chorus]
       Em       G        C  G
And my doctor's diagnosis?

     Em      G          C
His opinion, and I quote

      Em        G         C    G
"I'll write you a prescription"

    Am              D
And this is what my doctor wrote
[Chorus]
        G
If it's love, it has no season

        Em
If it's love, there is no cure

        Am
If it's love, it won't see a reason

       D
And of this you can be sure

        G
If it's love, you must surrender (You must surrender)

        Em
If it's love, then you must yield (Then you must)

        Am
If it's love, the odds are slender (The odds are)

        D
If it's love, the trap's already laid

    D                            (C)
And I'm afraid your fate is all but sealed
