A Song Is Love #128 (Take 2)
It makes so much in more, If there is love at your door.
Elisha Zaporelostzi's first performances were the Open Stages put on by the Bytown Live in Ottawa Ontario, Canada. It is how Neil Young and Joni Mitchell started.
Phreap magazine is a one page thing that went around Ottawa in the 1980s. Now it is a web site;

With the help of Joe-Charly Smith, Molly Ding, Calhoon-Fred Febealie, and Butter Jones I was able to put out Phreap magazine.

Lyrics
A Song Is Love #128 ("Back Up" song 13) By Patrick T. Connolly
/ C /F / C e g c / G
/ / It / takes so much less / long,
/G7 / C
/When there is a / song.
/ Am /Em
It / makes so much in / more,
/ Dm /Em
If / there is love at your / door.
/ G7 / D CM /F7
And remember, / love like a song. /
/ Em / F
/ Wouldn't it be less / without a song?
/C /Am / D / G7
/ So / don't be so shy. / Don't hide up / in the sky.
D CM7 / D
Love is a song. / A song is love,
/F7 / D / F
/ Brought by the / dove. /
[2nd Stanza]
/ C /F / C e g c / G
/ / They / said that it was / weak,
/G7 / C
/ And was nothing to / seek.
/ Am /Em
There / out on the bright hard /street,
/ Dm /Em
I / make a faint soft / sound.
/ G7 / D CM /F7
/ To pay for / my weak treat. /
/ Em / F
/They don't have the / strength,
/C /Am / D / G7
/ And / only pay a pound. / I must make it / a long length.
D CM7 / D
Love is a song. / A song is love,
/F7 / D / F / C
/ Brought by the / dove.
[repeat 1st stanza]
