This Is What Love Is

G    C     G    C    Am      D    Am      D

[Verse 1]

G                 C                     G                C
Endless days and long hard journeys.   Mending hearts forever yearning.
Am                 D      Am              D
This is what love is,   This is what love is.
G                 Em               G             Em
Healing blind men by his touch.  Knowing that he cares so much.
Am             D        Am             D
This is what love is,  this is what love is.
       C             Am                     D      G
And teaching us to love each other  as we love ourselves.
      C               Am               D
And laying down our lives for someone else.

[Chorus]

            C                         Em
And even when we fall,  he loves us through it all.
            C                   G       D
His gentle guiding hand  keeps understanding.
             C                            Em
He knows the tears we cry,  he knows our hearts may lie.
          C         D
For us again, he'd die.
                   G  Em     G  Em       Am              D
That's what love is.     WHOA           This is what love is

[Verse 2]

  G             Em                   G               Em
Suffering the world's rejection,  sacrifice and resurrection.
Am               D        Am            D
This is what love is,  this is what love is.
    C                  Am                   D    G
And in this world we live in,  there are no guarantees.
          C             Am              D             G
But there's one thing I'm sure of:  He died and rose for me.
      C               Am               D
His love has surely stood the test of time.

[Chorus]

            C                         Em
And even when we fall,  he loves us through it all.
            C                   G       D
His gentle guiding hand  keeps understanding.
             C                            Em
He knows the tears we cry,  he knows our hearts may lie.
          C         D
For us again, he'd die.
                   G  Em     G  Em       Am              D      G      D
That's what love is.     WHOA           This is what love is,   OH  YEAH

[Outro]

 D                  D               D         C    Am     D
He came and gave his life so we would know
     G       C     Am  D               G        C       Am      C
He is what love is.                  know what love is.        YEAH
