Intro: Am-Em-Dm7-; (2x)
           Oh woh ...

  C           F          
   Was a girl in the rain
  C                    F       
   No one else could feel her pain
  C           F         
   Was a boy all alone
  C                 F       
   Nothing left to call his own
  C            F     
   Something came along
  C                F    
   Secrets of surprise
  C                   F         
   Force of love was far too strong
  C                Bb  
   Saw it in their eyes
  Am                    Bb
   They tried and they tried
  Am                     Bb
   They tried but they couldn't play it off

                Chorus
    C                 F
   Love is contagious, when it's alright
    C                 F
   Love is contagious
    C                 F
   Love is contagious, when it's alright
    C                 F
   Love is contagious
         Am
   Yeah, hey

   Interlude: Am-Em-Dm7-; (2x)
               Oh woh ...

  C                F     
   Kind that stops on the street
  C               F       
   Ain't about being discrete
  C       F         C      
   Our love's a storm in disguise
          F
   It's alright
  C                  F          
   I couldn't keep away if I tried
  C                   F
   Understand, it's in your hands
  C                     F   
   Cause I tried and I tried
  C                    Bb
   I tried but there ain't no playing it off
