Jon Foreman - Love Isnt Made

love isn’t made
by jon foreman
tabbed by : the count of monte cristo
tuning : standard ( key of E )

the intro and verse just goes back and forth between an E and an a chord .
it may prove useful to do this by just changing the root string . . . alike so . . .

E A
E | – – 0 – – – – 0 – –
B | – – 5 – – – – 5 – –
G | – – 4 – – – – 4 – –
D | – – 2 – – – – 2 – –
A | – – x – – – – 0 – –
E | – – 0 – – – – x – –

verse 1 :

E A
an hour ago , i felt so low i almost drowned
E A
driving around this messed up town .
E A
it’s pretty , it’s only , i felt so lonely
( A )
and i knew all night
E
i’d never find a face that could understand
A
how much i miss you now .

the chords used in the rest of the song are . . .
( note : these are just suggested forms of the chords .
many of them are suspended or open simply for style ) .

chorus 1 :
C#m
and so i arrive at the conclusion
A
love isn’t made; love doesn’t sell or pay ,
G/E
but we buy and sell our love away .

verse 2 ( played same way as verse 1 ) :
E
escape to the water and stare up at
A
the stars and moon and sky
E
i was lying on my back
A
with my fingers in the sand .
E A
alone in miami , it sounds so funny
( A ) E
and yet , here i Am , it’s funny how life
A
is seldom what you plan

chorus 2 ( also played same was as verse 1 ) :
E A
don’t let the panic bring you down .

and there you are , friends . i believe , at this point , bob is indeed your uncle .
this is a great little tune and , please , do not disrespect it by
playing it on the beach and/or barefoot . let’s go ahead and try to break
the acoustic stereotype .
keep it real .
keep it classy .
