            Em
don't lay a finger I said,
                       G
but he held her with five
             D
kissed the crest of her lips
                    Am      Em
and put his hand on her thigh
      Em
one million in a week
                     G
or the girl is gonna go
     D                                   Am    Em
I'd kill you in a second, he laughed yeah I know

       C
I won eight hundred thousand on a game show
               Am               G
but it's not enough to win her back
        C
as my tears hit the floor, he still said no
     Am                    G
come on man give me some slack
   C
I looked at the case,
he said I'll show you her blood
     Am
I screamed down the phone line:
   D                 Em      G
so is this the price of love?

When I stare in your eyes I see the image of God
Well, girl, listen out for
the phonecall and pray for a flood
I called at a quarter past nine and said,
"I've done all I can"
He said, "You win some, you lose some,
I feel bad for you, man"
He slammed down the phone,
took his coat from the bed
She said, "What happens now?"
"Well, to your husband you're dead"
She said, "I love you"
and pleaded for her hero to stay
But knew deep inside that
he'd planned it this way

"I gave him my heart, now he's left it to die"
"And I know I can't go back"
He walked out the room, shouted, "See you around"
She begged, "Come on, give me some slack"
He said, "There's no hope, but,
babe, you can wait for that dove"
She screamed from the window,
"So is this the price of love?"
Said, "Is this the price of love?"
Said, "Is this the price of love?"

So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
So is this the price of love?
