Intro: C G Am F

           C                     G
They say sticks and stones can break your bones
      Am              F
But words they never hurt
     C               G             Am
Can turn a spark into a flame and then the
      F
fire burns
    C                     G
But I've heard words that shatter souls
     Am
They knock you down down
     F
They break you down down
     Dm                       F
Them words but loudest can be heard

C                            G
All around the world you can feel it moving
Am                  F
Shaking foundations waking up nations
C                           G
Listen to the sound you can hear it calling
      Am                           F
Don't matter 'bout them sticks and stones

             C G            Am F
Love is louder, love is louder

           C                  G
You know a bitter tongue is a bullet slung
      Am                   F
It'll shoot some people down
      C                       G
And a gentle word though it's seldom heard
    Am           F
Can wipe away a frown
         C                     G
They can lift your soul to the highest heights
   Am
Or knock you down down
     F
They break you down down
      Dm                      F
Them words but loudest can be heard

          C  G
La la la love
          Am G F
La la la love
          C       G   Am G F
La la la love is louder
          C  G
La la la love
          Am G F
La la la love
          C       G
La la la love is loud
