             POWERFUL THING     Trisha Yearwood

Intro chords    G D G D G D A A7

D
Well, I've never seen two people in my life
G
More determine to ignore the obvious
D                          A                      G   D    A
You better start thinking let our hearts do the talk-ing
D
We'd have to be stoned, or deaf, dumb and blind
        G
Not to see what's going on with us
D                         A                 G   D
So let's jump in and get over our fear of fall-ing
A
What we've got here is

CHORUS:
     G       D             G        D
A powerful thing  It's a powerful thing
                  A           A7
More than three words and a diamond ring
        G 
It can open up the heavens make the angels sing
G                     A        D     1.) G D G D G D A A7   2.) G D A A7
Our love baby, is a powerful thing

D
It started out as strangers on a two way street
         G 
Neither one of us looking to fall in love
        D                                  A              G    D     A
But we don't need us a map to know we're headed in that direc-tion
            D   
Well, It's out of our hands and over our heads
        G
It's something that's bigger then both of us
  D                      A                   G  D  
Turning back now is completely out of the ques-tion
A
Cause what we've got here

Go to chorus
D                              G
Stronger than the force of a driving wind
A                     G  D
Hotter than a forest fi-re
D                    G
Never have been and never will be
A
Nothing like the power of you and me  yeah, lead G D G D G D A A7 twice
