  			Theme from Love Story   

    Cm                     Bbmaj7 
I'm out on the street all alone by the newsstand 
    G# 			   Gm  
The lady of leisure comes tearin' by 
       F 
Almost knocking me down 

    Cm                      Bbmaj7 
She turns at the corner and looking back 
         G# 			    Gm 
Lets her eyes send the message I'm helpless alone 
        F 
And I'm goin' down 

G#                     Gm 
Help me I need someone gentle to love me 
   G#                  Gm 
My life is a miserable comedy  
   D#                  Dm 
Of strangers posing as friends 
                  G#     F       C 
I know they don't know who I am 

C  
Hurry it's time to make your move boy 
Hurry better get along with it soon boy 
F 
Hurry there she goes 
                    C 
Hurry she's out the door boy 
    G                                       F        C        
You know you can win the battle but you can lose the war 
Hurry are your feet glued to the pavement boy 
    G                                       F        C        
You know you can win the battle but you can lose the war 

F							    Cm Gm Bb C 
Thought I saw a fox I did I saw a fox amidst that sea of pri-I-I-ide 
Running 
F							       Cm Gm Bb C 
Let me call a hansom cab we'll both get in and then go for a r-i-i-iide 
Nowhere 
F                        Bb 
Nothing spoken I retreat find the subway take a seat  
  F 	                                   Cm Gm Bb  C 
I let myself get in my way and let her get awa-a-aa-ay 

I got off the train at the next stop and headed back uptown 
I knew I could find her 
She so needed a friend 

I found her alone in a doorway the tears in her eyes 
Said there's nothing that you can say 
I just need an ending 

I gave her a flower and got her to smile 
    G#                            Gm			F 
And asked her quite frankly would she not prefer a beginning
