>From the *fabulous* Jules Shear album The Great Puzzle comes this
beautiful song (track 3) which should have been a huge hit for some
mainstream crooner (Richard Marx???). 
This song is (c) 1992 Geffen Again Music/Juters Music, Inc/Funzalo

		We Were Only Making Love (Shear)
		--------------------------------

Intro: || A | E | F#m | D | F#m | D E | A | Asus4 A ||

Verse1: (A)                            D       F#m
	I had my doubts that I'd find someone
                                       D       F#m
	Who looked like you, who'd be like me
                                        D
	And what feels wrong from the start
                      A       E
	Is so easily pulled apart
                                  A    Asus4 A
	But still I wanted it to be
                             D             F#m
	I guess I wanted it far too much
                                  D        F#m
	I overlooked the small details
                                     D
	But it's from these little things
                          A         E
	And the pleasures that they bring
                                  A     Asus4  A
	That our hopes succeed or fail

Chorus: (A)                  D
	We were only making love
                             A     G D
	We were only making love
               E                     A             D
	Well I thought that we were really doing something 
                    E            A
	But we were only making love

		(Intro)
Verse2: (A)                       D         F#m
	And what feels so good at bedtime
                                  D              F#m
	Doesn't always make it through the day
                                 D
	I've seen people just go on
                              A       E
	They got a world they built upon
                             A    Asus4  A
	And nothing left to say
                             D             F#m
	I guess I wanted it far too much
                            D           F#m
	I couldn't see it happening
                                        D
	The change that comes upon us slow
                          A         E
	And changes us before you know
                                    A     Asus4  A
	Into a different same old thing

		(Chorus)

	|| A | D | F#m | D | F#m | D | Bm | E ||

Verse3: (E)                    D               F#m
	The heat of summer was ours to share
	                      D            F#m
	Well you can hide but I can tell
                               D
	That when we feel the fall
                            A       E
	And see the letters on the wall
                                       A
	These are the sad words that they'll spell

Chorus: (A)           A(C#)  D
	We were only making love
                             A     G D
	We were only making love
               E                     A             D
	Well I thought that we were really doing something 
             E                  A            D
	The passion rained down on us from above
               E                    A                 D
	It's strange that now this far from where it happened
                F#m
	It'd be easy to see
                     D     E      A
	That we were only making love
