Bm C#m D E x2
[Verse 1]
Dmaj7 A
Well, I spent a lifetime lookin' for you
D A E
single bars and good time lovers were never true
Dmaj7 A
playing a fool's game, hopin' to win
D A E E/D C#m Bm
and tellin' those sweet lies and losin' again
[Chorus]
A
I was lookin' for love in all the wrong places
C#m
lookin' for love in too many faces
D
searchin' their eyes
D
lookin' for traces
Bm C#m D E
of what I'm dreamin' of
A
Hoping to find a friend and a lover
C#m
I'll bless the day I discover,
D Bm E A
another heart, lookin' for love
[Verse 2]
Dmaj7 A
And I was alone then, no love in sight
D A E
I did everything I could to get me through the night
Dmaj7 A
I don't know where it started or where it might end
D A E E/D C#m Bm
I turned to a stranger just like a friend
[Chorus]
A
I was lookin' for love in all the wrong places
C#m
lookin' for love in too many faces
D
searchin' their eyes
D
lookin' for traces
Bm C#m D E
of what I'm dreamin' of
A
Hoping to find a friend and a lover
C#m
I'll bless the day I discover,
D Bm E A
another heart, lookin' for love
[Bridge]
D
And you came a knockin' at my heart's door
Bm C#m D E
you're everything I've been lookin' for
[Chorus]
A
There's no more lookin' for love in all the wrong places
C#m
lookin' for love in too many faces
D
searchin' their eyes
D
lookin' for traces
Bm C#m D E
of what I'm dreamin' of
A
Now that I found a friend and a lover
C#m
I bless the day I discovered
D Bm E A
you, oh you, lookin' for love

Left a good job in the city, workin for the man every night and day
and I never lost one minute of sleepin', worryin' 'bout the way things might
A Bm
have been. Big wheel a-keep on turnin' Proud Mary keep on burnin',
D
Roll - in', rollin', rollin' on the river
[Verse 2]
D
Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis, pumped a lot of pane down in New
Orleans, But I never saw the good side of the city, till I hitched a ride

on a river boat queen. Big wheel a-keep on turnin, Proud Mary keep on

if you come down to the river, bet you're gonna find some people who live,
D
you don't have to worry, cause you have no money, people on the river are
A Bm
happy to give. Big wheel keep on turnin, Proud Mary keep on burnin,

So I tuck my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him why

D A G A
So I jumped the fence and yelled at the house hey, what gives you the right
Bm G
To put up a fence to keep me out, or to keep mother nature in

If God was here he'd tell it to your face, man you're some kind of sinner
