Sting – Love Is Stronger Than Justice (Guitar)

Am
This is a story of seven brothers

Am
We had the same father but different mothers

Am
We keep together like a family should

Am
Roaming the country for the common good

Am
It came to pass one faithful day

Am
We found ourselves down Mexico way

Am
The town, the mayor, the P.T.A

Am
Pleading on their knees with us all to stay

Am
We'd only stopped for a few burritos

Am
But they told us of the trouble with los banditos

Am
A poor little town in need of aid

Am
My brothers and me had never been afraid

Am
The age of chivalry is not dead

Am
Lomesome nights in a coyboy bed

Am
There'd be a bride for every man

Am
Who chased away the evil gang

C       F
Love is stronger than justice

G                    C
Love is thicker than blood

C                 F
Love love love is stronger than justice

G         G7               C
Love is a big fat river in flood

Am
The outcome was predictable

Am
Our banditos were despicable

Am
Of blood we lost a dozen litres

Am
A small price to pay for las senoritas

Am
The town mayor was happy but his face was glum

Am
The maidens numbered only one

Am
But there weren't seven brides for seven brothers

Am
I knew I had to get rid of the others

C       F
Love is stronger than justice

G                    C
Love is thicker than blood

C       F
Love is stronger than justice

G         G7               C
Love is a big fat river in flood

Am
Mother told me I was the clever one

Am
The seventh son of a seventh son

Am
It all ended so happily

Am
I settled down with the family

Am
I look forward to a better day

Am
But ethical stuff never got in my way

Am
And though there used to be brothers seven

Am
There other six are singing in heaven

C       F
Love is stronger than justice

G                    C
Love is thicker than blood

C                 F
Love love love is stronger than justice

G         G7               C
Love is a big fat river in flood

C       F
Love is stronger than justice

G                    C
Love is thicker than blood

C                 F
Love love love is stronger than justice

G         G7               C
Love is a big fat river in flood

G         G7               C
Love is a big fat river in flood
