[Verse]
G# C# G#
I was a sailor, I was lost in sea
G# C# G#
I was under the waves, before love resqued me
G# C# G#
I was a fighter, I could turn on the threat
G#~
Now I stand accused of things I've said
[Chorus]
C#
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
G#
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
\
But I did what I did before love came to town
[Interlude]

[Verse]
G# C# G#
Used to make love under the red sunset
G# C# G#
I was making promises that I were soon to forget
G# C# G#
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
G#~
But I left her standing before love came to town.
[Verse]
G# C# G#
Ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
G# C# G#
The notes were turning blue as days are a dream
G# C# G#
As the music played I saw my life turn around
G#~
That was the day before love came to town
[Chorus]
C#
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
G#
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
\
But I did what I did before love came to town
[Interlude]
G# C# G# 4x
[Chorus]
C#
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
G#
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
\
But I did what I did before love came to town
[Solo]
G# C# G#
[Verse]
G# C# G#
I was there when they crusified my lord
G# C# G#
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
G# C# G#
I threw the dice as they pierced his side
G#~
But I've seen love conquer the great divide
[Chorus]
C#
Love comes to town,
I'm gonna jump that train
G#
When love comes to town
I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
\
But I did what I did before love came to town
