Em7      Em     Em7     Em
Long ago in the book of old,
A
Before the chapter where dreams unfold
Em7      Em                  A
A battle raged on the open page,
G                       A
Love was a winner there overcoming hate
B                               Em    G
Like a little girl who couldn't wait.
C             D         Em      G
Love and only love will endure
C            D                  Em      G
Hate is everything you think it is
C             D                  Em      G
Love and only love will break it down
C             D
Love and only love, will break it down

Break it down, break it down.

Tomorrow is a long long time if you're a memory
Trying to find peace of mind
Spirit come back to me,
Give me strength and set me free
Let me hear the magic in my heart.

Love and only love will endure
Hate is everything you think it is
Love and only love will break it down
Love and only love, will break it down
Break it down, break it down.

Long ago in the book of old,
Before the chapter where dreams unfold
A battle raged on the open page,
Love was a winner there overcoming hate
Like a little girl who couldn't wait.

Love and only love will endure
Hate is everything you think it is
Love and only love will break it down
Love and only love
Love and only love
Love and only love
Love and only love
Love and only love
