You Don't Know What Love Is
Words & Music by George DePaul, Don Raye
Recorded by Dinah Washington, 1955
E7 A9 Fdim
You don't know what love is
Am A9 Am G/B E7 Em7-5 E7 Am
'Til you've learned the meaning of the blues;
Dm Dm+7 F G7 Fdim Am
Until you've loved a love you've had to lose,
Dm Em7-5 E7 E7-9 Em7-5 E7
You don't know what love is.
E7 A9 Fdim
You don't know how lips hurt
Am A9 Am G/B E7 Em7-5 E7 Am
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost;
Dm Dm+7 F G7 Fdim Am
Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost,
Dm Em7-5 E7 E A9 Am
You don't know what love is.
Bridge:
G G7 Fdim C CM7
Do you know how a lost heart fears
G Am7 G/B C
At the thought of rem - i - nis - cing,
Dm7 Fdim C
And how lips that taste of tears
F Bbm9 Em7-5 E7
Lose their taste for kissing?
E7 A9 Fdim
You don't know how hearts burn
Am A9 Am G/B E7 Em7-5 E7 Am
For love that can - not live yet never dies.
Dm Dm+7 F G7 Fdim Am
Until you've faced each dawn with sleep - less eyes,
Dm Em7-5 E7 E A9 Am
You don't know what love is.
