Intro
| Am G F2 / | C/G / / / | F2/A / / Dm7 | 
Verse 1
I could write a melody
That
all of heaven’s choir sings
But
Am 
if I
don't have
love
Then it means
Dm7 
nothing
I can spit out some holy word
Something that you've never heard
But
Am 
if I
don't have
love
It means
Dm7 
nothing
Chorus
If I can’t
C2/E 
love my neighbor like I love myself
F2 
If I won’t
C/G 
move when my brother cries out for help
F2/A 
If I’m too
C2/E 
proud to forgive before the sun goes down
F2 
Then this
C/G 
life that I’ve been living, what does it mean now?
F2/A 
At best it all means
C2/E 
nothing
F2 
Without love it all means
C/G 
nothing
F2/A 
Verse 2
I can dine with kings and queens
My
name go down in history
But
Am 
if I
don't have
love
It means
Dm7 
nothing
So
take the old and make me new
Show me how to love like You
'Cause
Am 
if I
don't have
love
It means
Dm7 
nothing
REPEAT CHORUS

At best it all means

nothing

Bridge
C2/E 
I don't want to sound like a crashing cymbal
F2 
C/G 
I don't want to be some empty noise
F2/A 
C2/E 
Down on my knees, Lord, I surrender
F2 
Jesus,
C/G 
help me to love with a love like Yours
F2/A

Vamp
And then it’ll all mean
C2/E 
something

Alt Chorus
I want to
C2/E 
love my neighbor like I love myself
F2 
I want to
C/G 
move when my brother cries out for help
F2/A 
Don’t want to be too
C2/E 
proud to forgive before the sun goes down
F2 
Then this
C/G 
life that I’ve been living what would it mean?
F2/A 
At best it will all mean
C2/E 
something
F2 
With love it all means
C/G 
something

I hope it all means

something
F2 
With love it will all mean
C/G 
something
