Chord/Tab song: Love Is Not Against the Law

Derek Webb - Mockingbird
Transcribed by John Huss

[C]Politics or love
Can make you [Em]blind or make you see
Make you a [Am]slave or make you free
[Am/G] But only one does it [F]all

And it's [C]giving up your life
For the [Em]ones you hate the most
It's [Am]giving them your gown
When they've taken your [D7]clothes

It's [C]learning [Am]to ad[Em]mit[F]
When you've [C]had a [Am]hand in [G]setting them [F]up
In [G/B]knocking them [F/C]down

[C]Love is [F]not against the law
[Am]Love is [D7]not against the law
[C] Love, [G]love, [F]love[C]

Are we defending life
When we just pick and choose
Lives acceptable to lose
And which ones to defend

?Cause you cannot choose your friends
But you choose your enemies
And what if they were one
One and the same

Could you find a way
To love them both the same
To give them your name
