Verse 1
E          A                               E 
There’s an old love song, deep within this heart of mine 
       B                                 E 
And it begs to sing out, every time your near 
       A                            E              C#m 
It’s a melody that yearns for me to hold you close

And to let you know I love you, being here. 
 
Verse 2
        A                                E 
Just an old love song, engrained into my very soul 
    B                                    E

        A                               E            C#m

And it just keeps growing stronger, through the years. 
 
Chorus
           A                              E 
Oh, like a man who’s been possessed, I am cursed and I am blessed 
                                         B 
With the ever present sound of a sweet refrain 
       A                          E              C#m 
And it never lets me rest, and it puts me to the test 
A                                    B 
    Keeps me coming back, again and again

And you feel my love right through till morning light
