A E7 A A broken man moves slowly down the sidewalk E7 A Humbled by the favors he must seek D A F#m From those that he encounters on his walk through misery A G A Who are rich enough to hurt just as they please E7 A If not for love I could be one of these An old man on a park bench stares with envy At a couple with their children on their knees While across the park a young man is caught by the police Stealing for a habit he must feed And if not for love I could be one of these Chorus: D E7 A I could be one of these or so many many more D A Always at the beck and call of shame D E7 A F#m I'm thankful I was called by love to walk among the happy D E7 A But if not for you love wouldn't know my name A man of squander talents vainly calls on His gift of God now straining through his soul While in the crowd before him a jealous friend awaits The moments that he can no longer please And if not for love I could be one of these Chorus Yes if not for love I could be one of these | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA  D  E7  F#m  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
