Chords for Alec Benjamin ~ If We Have Each Other (Lyrics)

[Bbm] She was 19 with a baby on [Ab] the way on the east side of the city.
She was working [Fm] every day cleaning dishes in the evening.
She could barely stay [Gb] awake.
She was clinging to the feeling [Ab] the luck was gonna [Bbm] change and cross town.
She would take the bus [Ab] at night to a bedroom apartment [Fm] when she turned on the light.
She would sit down at the table tell [Ab] herself that it's [Gb] alright.
She was waiting on the day.
She's [Ab] the baby would [Bbm] arrive.
She'd be [Ab] alone.
_ Have someone [Fm] to hold and when nights [Gb] were cold She [Bbm] said.
World's not perfect, but it's not that bad if [Ab] we got each other and that's all we have.
I [Fm] will be your mother and I'll hold your hand.
[Gb] You should know I'll be there for you and [Bbm] the world's not perfect.
But the world's not kind if [Ab] we have each other then we'll both be fine.
I [Fm] will be your mother and I'll hold your hand [Gb] you should know I'll be there [Ebm] for you.
[Bbm] They were 90 and were living out [Ab] the days on the west side of the city next to where they got [Fm] engaged.
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that [Gb] they made and though life is never easy.
They [Ab] were thankful that [Bbm] they stayed with each other and though sometimes [Ab] were hard even when she made him angry.
He would never break [Fm] a heart.
They didn't have the money to afford a fancy [Gb] car.
But they never had to travel cause [Ab] they'd never be [Bbm] apart.
Even at [Ab] the end.
Their love was stronger [Fm] than.
The day that they first [Gb] met they say.

So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes [Gb] we fight when high school wasn't easy.
She's [Ab] the reason I [Bbm] survived.
I know she never leave me and I hate to see [Ab] her cry.
So I hope this verse to tell her that I'm always by [Fm] her side.
I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by [Gb] her side.
