Let's start it here
E A
Back in nineteen-seventy-sumthin'
Bm F#m
I can't pin down the year
C#m D
When the romance wasn't dead
E A
And love still stood for something
E A
There was a girl who had lost her way
Bm F#m
She blushed red when he came over
C#m D
And they danced the night away
E A
And he sung as he drove her home and
E A
It was there that she would say
Bm F#m
If I could than I would save you
C#m D
And he smiled and turned away
B
In six weeks they're saying "I do"
D A
Oh, Love just don't go that way no more
F#m C#m
And like the seed becomes the tree
E A
We'll take shape of a family
F#m C#m
We grow and we change
E A
And face the rain like you wouldn't believe
F#m
And through it all
C#m
We're standing tall
E A
And I just don't say it enough
F#m C#m
If not for you,
E A
No, we wouldn't be standing at all
A E A
E A
And now it's nineteen-ninety-sumthin'
Bm F#m
How the hell did we end up here?
C#m D
Four kids and a few jobs later
E A
And the pictures fill the pages
E A
It's been hard, oh it's been hard
Bm F#m
But you'd be a fool to give it up
C#m D E A
'Cause you know that what we've got is bigger than the two of us
E A
It's been hard, oh it's been hard
Bm F#m
But it's bigger than the two of us
C#m D
And I will hold you in my arms
E B D
When you feel like giving up
D A
Love just don't go that way no more
F#m C#m
And like the seed becomes the tree
E A
We'll take shape of a family
F#m C#m
We grow and we change
E A
And face the rain like you wouldn't believe
F#m
And through it all
C#m
We're standing tall
E A
And I just don't say it enough
F#m C#m
If not for you,
E A
No, we wouldn't be standing at all
E A
And now its two-thousand-and-sumthin'
Bm F#m
We made it here my dear
C#m D
Grandkids and the mortgage paid off
E A
Is this what dreams are made of?
E A
'Cause baby we made it
Bm F#m
Yeah baby you saved me
C#m D
But nothing could save him
Bm
From the ambulance that day
E F#m
When he went away
E D
The heart attack was sharp
E F#m
He didn't feel no pain
A E D
If you saw him now then what
E F#m
What would you say?
E D
I love you and I miss you
E F#m
I owe you everything
A E B D
And I hope you know you saved me (saved me!)
A
E A
Oh mother
Bm F#m
Mother please don't cry
C#m D
'Cause you know I miss him too
E A
I didn't even say goodbye
E A
And though he's gone, I know he's gone
Bm F#m
He lives on in all of us
C#m D
And I will hold you when you cry
D A E A
'Cause that's what he would have done
Bm F#m C#m D
Yeah, that's what he would have done
E A
Yeah, that's what he would have done
E A
It's been hard, oh it's been hard
Bm F#m
But he's a part of all of us
C#m D
And I will hold you when you cry
E A
'Cause that's what family does
