The Greatest Gift Chords by John Greenwood

[Verse 1] 
          G               Bm 
Love is patient, love is kind, 
         C             G
Never selfish, often blind
         Bm             Am         D D7
Never boastful, not conceited, nor rude
        G        Bm    
Never envious of men, 
        C          G
never comes to an end
         C        D       G
Love delights always in truth

 
[Verse 2]
 
        G                 Bm  
I may speak in tongues of men, 
       C     G
or of angels
            Bm             Am    D  D7
May have faith to move mountains above
            G                 Bm   
Warmed a friend that I have spurned, 
         C           G
give my body to be burned
            C         D         G
But I am nothing at all without love
 
[Verse 3]
 
            G               Bm   
Are there prophets in this world? 
           C       G
Their work is over
            Bm                Am     D D7
Is there knowledge? It shall vanish away
             G             Bm 
Are there tongues of ecstasy? 
            C               G
Well then ceased they shall be
              C            D     G
All that's partial shall vanish away
 

[Verse 4]
 
                 G             
There's three things that will 
Bm             C       G 
last till the end of time
      Bm            Am             D
In a word they are faith hope and love
                  G        Bm   
There are these three everlasting 
 C          G
gifts from thee
           C          D        G
But the greatest of these is love
