Standard (EADGBE)

You can play the game and you can act out the part

Though you know it wasn't written for you

But tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart

Ashamed of playing the fool

One thing can lead to an-other; it doesn't take any sac-ri-fice

Oh, father and mother, sis-ter and brother,

if it feels nice, don't think twice

Just shower the people you love with love

Show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna work out fine if you only will

Shower the people you love with love

Show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna be much better if you only will. [C G]

You can run but you cannot hide;

this is widely known

And what you plan to do with your foolish pride

when you're all by yourself alone

Once you tell somebody the way that you feel

you can feel it beginning to ease

I think it's true what they say about the squeaky wheel

always getting the grease.

Better to shower the people you love with love

Show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna be just fine if you only will

Show the people you love with love

Show them the way that you feel

Things are gonna be much better if you only will.

||: Shower the people you love with love; show them the way that you feel :||

Ad lib:

They say in every life,

They say the rain must fall

Just like pouring rain

Make it rain

Love is sunshine.
