Fantastic song from The Beach Boys' recent boxset, Feel Flows: The Sunflower & Surf’s Up Sessions 1969–1971.
I can't believe this song was unreleased until this year. Anyways, this is a pretty simple song.
I've tabbed it out mostly using open chords with a capo on the second fret. Some of the chord voicings might
be a little off, feel free to experiment. The strumming pattern is pretty straightforward, just listen to the
song.
[Verse 1]
Em C B7 Em Endlessly I've dreamed of love and its fever Em C B7 And how it could bring such a change through the years Em C B7 Em Now that it's all real, nowhere to run Em C B7 Em We must make the best of the things that we've done Em C B7 Em Sittin' 'round thinkin' 'bout it rips my soul Em C B7 It drives me to the bitter end, you know Em C B7 Em Glad that it's over and love didn't last Em C B7 Em I'll think of the future, the heck with the past
[Chorus]
G Bm C And the words don't come from the heart of me, girl G Bm C We can't go on make believin' D7 Am We're still in love, can't you see F It's meant to be
D7
[Verse 2]
Em C B7 Em Love was a sweet dream, I woke, it was gone Em C B7 And then came the bad times, on and on Em C B7 Em If that's how it must be, I don't feel so bad Em C B7 Em And I'll count your love as the worst that I've had
[Chorus]
G Bm C And the words don't come from the heart of me, girl G Bm C We can't go on make believin' D7 Am We're still in love, can't you see F It's meant to be
D7
[Verse 3]
Em C B7 Em Sweet and bitter ways are not often wrong Em C B7 When one's for another it can't be done Em C B7 Em I followed a dream and it took me away Em C B7 Em Away from love's fever we caught yesterday
[Chorus]
G Bm C And the words don't come from the heart of me, girl G Bm C We can't go on make believin' D7 Am We're still in love, can't you see F It's meant to be
D7
N.C. G Bm C And the words don't come from the heart of me, girl G Bm C We can't go on make believin'
