SONG: Without Love
ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman
From the musical, Hairspray
Intro:
- -- --
Once i was a selfish fool
Who never understood
I never looked inside myself
- -
Though on the outside, i looked good!
Then we met and you made me
The man i am today
- -
Tracy, i'm in love with you
- --
No matter what you weigh
E7 -- A
'Cause... Without love
Life is like the seasons with
No summer
Without love
Dm -
Life is rock 'n' roll without
Dm6 -
A drummer
- --
Tracy, i'll be yours forever
- -
'Cause I never wanna be
- -
Without love
Tracy, never set me free
No, i ain't lyin'
Never set me free,
-- -- --
Tracy, No, no, no!!
Once i was a simple girl
Then stardom came to me
But i was still a nothing
- -- --
Though a thousand fans may disagree
Fame was just a prison
Signing autographs a bore
I didn't have a clue
'Til you came banging on my door
A---A7--D
That without love
Life is like my dad without his bromo
Without love
- -
Life is making out with perry como!
- --
Darling, i'll be yours forever
C7 --B7sus - B7/Eb -
'Cause i never wanna be
- -
Without love
So darling, throw away the key
I'm yours forever
Throw away the key
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Living in the ghetto
Black is ev'rywhere ya go
Who'd 've thought i'd love a girl
- - -
With skin as white as winter's snow
In my ivory tower
Life was just a hostess snack
But now i've tasted chocolate
And i'm never going back
Bb7 -- Eb
'Cause without love
Life is like a beat that you can't follow
Without love
- -
Life is doris day at the apollo
- --
Darling, i'll be yours forever
- -
'Cause i never wanna be
- -
Without love
So darling, never set me free
I'm yours forever
Never set me free
No, no, no!
- -
If you're locked up in this prison, Trace
- -
I don't know what i'll do
- -
Link, i've got to break out
-- -- -
So that i can get my hands on you
Edim ---
And
girl, if i can't touch you
D#(add9)/G - Eb/G -
Now i'm gonna lose control
- -
Seaweed, you're my black white knight
I've found my blue-eyed soul
- -
Sweet freedom is our goal
Trace, i wanna kiss ya!
- --
Then i can't wait for parole!
C/G---Dm7/G ---
'Cause without
love
Life is like a prom that won't invite us
Without love
- -
Life's getting my big break and laryngitis
Without love
Life's a '45' when you can't buy it
Without love
Life is like my mother on a diet
Like a week that's only mondays
Only ice cream never sundaes
Like a circle with no center
Like a door marked "do not enter!"
- -
DARLING, I'LL BE YOURS FOREVER
A#7 ---
'Cause I
- -
never wanna be...
- -
Without love
Yes now you've captured me
- -
Without love
I surrender happily
--Dm - - ---
Without love
Oh seaweed
Never set me free
No, no, no
No, i ain't lyin'
Never set me free
C -
No, no, no
-- --
No, i dont wanna live without
Love, love, love
F -
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Cm---A#/C---Cm---A#/C ---
