I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner (Video, Lyrics & Chords)

Corría mediados de los años ochenta cuando apareció esta poderosa balada del grupo Foreigner, grupo que conocíamos desde fdinales de los setentas, y que ya hacía pocos años nos había regalado la extraordinaria Waiting for a Girl Like You, la que después de 10 semanas en el #2 nunca pudo alcanzar el #1.

Pero I Want to Know What Love is, estaba destinada para llegar al #1, siendo la única canción de foreigner que llego a ese lugar, y terminó siendo la canción #4 del año 1985.

Disfrutemos de esta canción que aún se sigue escuchando en los cículos adultos contemporáneos.

I Want To Know What Love Is

Intro: Em D G C Em D Em


Em                 D      G
I've gotta take a little time

        C                   Em   D
A little time to think things over

Em                D        G
I better read between the lines

         C               Em    D
In case I need it when I'm older

Em                D        G
Now this mountain I must climb

              C              Em
Feels like the world upon my shoulders

 Em                 D         G
Through the clouds I see love shine

           C                 Em
It keeps me warm as life grows colder


Pre-Chorus:

     Am                D             Am
In my life there's been heartache and pain

                     D        Am
I don't know if I can face it again

                    D          Am
Can't stop now I've travelled so far

   C     G/B Am   G  Am
To change this lonely life



Chorus:


G                    Em  D
I want to know what love is

Am         Em       D
I want you to show me

G                    Em  D
I want to feel what love is

Am         Em        D  D7 Em
I know you can show me


Em                D      G
I'm gonna take a little time

        C             Em      D
A little time to look around me

Em                D       G
I've got nowhere left to hide

             C                Em
It looks like love has finally found me

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Outro: Repeat chorus and fade w/ad lib lyrics
