Verse 1
For a wh[Eb]while there it was ro[Bb]rough
But lately, [F]I've been doin' be[Gm]better
Than the [Eb]last four cold Dece[Bb]Decembers I recall [F]
And I see my [Eb]family every mon[Bb]month
I found a [F]girl my parents l[Gm]love
She'll come and [Eb]stay the
night, and I [Bb] think I might have it all [F]
And I tha[Eb]thank God every d[Bb]day
For the [F]girl he [D/F#]sent my w[Gm]way
But I [Eb]know the things he [Bb]gives me, he can take awa[F]away
And I [Eb]hold you every nig[Bb]night
And that's a f[Gm]feeling I wa[F]wanna get [Eb]used to
But there's no [Eb]man as terrified as
the [F]man who stands to lose you [Eb] [Bb]

Oh, I hope I don't [F]losе you [Gm]

I found my [Eb]mind, I'm feelin' [Bb]sane
It's been a [F]while, but I'm finding my [Gm]faith
If everything's [Eb]good and it's great,
why do [Bb]I sit and wait 'til it's [F]gone?
Oh, I'll tell ya, I [Eb]know I've got en[Bb]enough
