Lyrics

Love Gone Wild (capo on 2nd fret, in A)
 
G D G C
The house is dark, the bed still made. I thought that you’d be home.
C D G C
Three hours later I turn in. I hate these nights alone.
C D G C
I should worry about your safety, but I could tell by your sad smile
Am Am7 D7
That tonight it’s just love gone wild.

refrain
C2 D2,r3 G
Love, love gone wild.
Love, love gone wild.
C2 D2,r3 G G/B Em
Like the snow drifting high, or the prairie on fire,
C2 D2,r3 G
Love, love gone wild.


That I’m a fool I have no doubt, but the years between
Are sweeter than I ever thought my life could be.
I’ve felt that wildness, seen the flame, but I lost it when you smiled
Like the memory of your love gone wild.

Refrain

I see your picture by our bed, your hand upon the wall
of some abandoned Catholic church, the windows stained and tall.
There were words in Latin, incense and prayers for a while,
maybe a confession of a love gone wild.

Refrain
