[Intro]
[C] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G]

[C]Show me a river, [G]I'll show you an ocean
[F]I'll show you a [C]castle turn into sand
[Am]For we rise and we fall [G]and we crash on the coastline
[C]And only our love [G]will last 'til the end
[F]Fortune is fleeting, [C]time is deceiving
[Am]Our bodies are weak, [G]and they turn into dust
[C]All following blindly, but [G]love is like lightning
[F]It strikes only one [C]time, and ain't it enough?
[Am]Ain't it enough to live [G]by the ways of the world
[C]To be part of [G]the picture, whatever its worth?
[F]Throw your arms around each [C]other 'n' love one another
[Am]For it's only one life that [G]we got, and ain't it enough?
[C]Surely, all people were [G]made for each other
[F]To join in together when [C]the days turn to dust
[Am]So let the prison walls [G]crumble, and the borders all tumble
[C]There's a place for us [G]all here, and ain't it enough?
[F]Ain't it enough, to live [C]by the ways of the world
[Am]To be part of [G]the picture, whatever its worth?
[C]Throw your arms around each [G]other 'n' love one another
[F]For it's only one life that [C]we've got, and ain't it enough?
[Am]Late in the evening, [G]feeling the wind blow
[C]Talk through the treetops, [G]warm in the sun
[F]Lying beside you, [C]watching the moon rise
[Am]If that's all there is, [G]babe, then ain't it enough?
[C]♪
[G]Show me a river, [F]I'll show you an ocean
[C]Of stars just like [Am]diamonds all shining above
[G]Where the heavens are beaming, [C]and all the world's dreaming
[G]Of peace everlasting, [F]and ain't it enough?
[C]Ain't it enough to live [Am]by the ways of the world
[G]To be part of [C]the picture, whatever its worth
[G]Throw your arms around each [F]other 'n' love one another
[C]For it's only one life that [Am]we've got, and ain't it enough?
[G]Ain't it enough?
