          E
I've been looking for a lover
But I haven't met her yet
She'll be nothing like
                   B
I pictured her to be
        E
In her eyes I will discover
  A
Another reason why
           E
I want to live
              B
And make the best
           E
Of what I see

           E
Where the sun hits the water
And the mountains meet the sand
There's a beach
                       B
That I walk along sometimes
     E
And maybe there I'll meet her
            A
And we'll start to say "Hello"
            E
And never stop to think
   B          E
Of any other time

Chorus:
E              B
Lookin' for a love
                 A
That's right for me
E                 B
I don't know how long
            A
It's gonna be
       C#m
But I hope I treat her kind
     B
And don't mess with her mind
           A
When she starts to see
    E/G#           F#m
The darker side of me - x2

           E
I've been looking for a lover
But I haven't met her yet
She'll be nothing like
                   B
I pictured her to be
       E
In h er eyes I will discover
  A
Another reason why
           E
I want to live
              B
And make the best
           E
Of what I see
