If We Have Each Other chords
Start Jamming...
She was 19 with a baby on [Ab] the way on the east side of the city
She [Fm] was working every day cleaning dishes in the evening.
She could barely stay [Gb] awake
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna [Bbm] change and cross town
She would take the bus [Ab] at night to a one-bedroom apartment and when she turned on [Fm] the light
She would sit down at the table tell herself that it's [Gb] alright.
She was waiting on the day
She hoped a baby would [Bbm] arrive.
She'd never be [Ab] alone
Have someone [Fm] to hold and when nights [Gb] were cold
She'd say [Bbm] the world's not perfect, but it's not that bad if [Ab] we got each other and it'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 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 all the memories that [Gb] they made and though life is never easy
They 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] her heart.
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy [Gb] car
But they never had to travel cause 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 [Bbm] the world's not perfect, but it's not that bad if [Ab] we got each other and it's all we have
I [Fm] will be your lover 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 lover and I'll hold your hand.
[Gb] You should know I'll be there for you
[Bbm] [Ab]
[Fm] [Gb] You should know I'll be there for you
[Bbm] I'm 23 and [Ab] my folks are getting old.
I know they don't have forever and [Fm] I'm scared to be alone
So I'm thankful for my sister, even though sometimes [Gb] we fight when high school wasn't easy.
She's the reason I [Bbm] survived
I know she never leave me and I hate to see [Ab] her cry
This first the teller that I'm always by [Fm] her side, I wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by [Gb] her side
I wrote this verse to tell her
[Bbm] The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad if [Ab] we got each other and it's all we have
I [Fm] will be your brother and I'll hold your hand
[Gb] You should know I'll be there for you.
[Bbm] The world's not perfect
When the world's not kind if [Ab] we have each other, then we'll both be fine
I [Fm] will be your brother and I'll hold your hand.
[Gb] You should know.
I'll be there for you
[Bbm] [Fm]
[Gb] You should know I'll be there for you
