And for love's sake, each mistake, all you forgave
And soon both of us learned to try
There was no time to play
We built it up
Now it's solid
Solid as [D] a rock
That's [Eb] [Bb] [Cm]
[D] what [Eb] I did
[F] [G] That's [Em] what we've got
[Eb] [F]
[C] Solid
[G] Solid as [D] a rock
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm]
[Dm] And [Eb] it's changed it
[F] I [Em] feel it still [Eb] Oh
[F]
[G] You didn't turn away
When the sky went gray
[Bb] Somehow we managed
We had to [F] stick [Eb] together
[F] You [Eb] [F]
[G] didn't bat an eye
When I made you cry
[Bb] We knew down the line
We would [F] make it [Bb] That [F] love
[Eb] [F]
And for [G] love's sake, [Eb] each [Eb] mistake, all you [C] [D] forgave
And [F] soon [G] both of [Eb] us learned to [Dm] try
[Cm] Not to run [Bb] away
There was no time to [G] play
We [Am] built it up
And [Em] build it up
[G] And [C] now it's solid
Solid [D] as a rock
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Dm]
[Eb] And it's changed it
[C] [F] I [G] feel it [C] still
[Eb] [F]
[G] Oh
Knock, knock on wood You understood
[Bb] Love was so new
We did what [F] we had to
[Gm] [F] [Eb] [Dm] [F] And with that [G] feeling
We [Eb] were willing
[Dm]
[Cm] To take [Am] a [D] chance
[F] So [G] against all odds
[Eb] We made a [Dm] start
[Cm] We got serious
[Bb] [Eb] It's one kind of [G] dust
We [C] built it up
And [G] build it up
And now [Dm]
[C] it's solid
[G] Solid [D] as a rock
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] That's [Dm] what [Eb] this love is
[F] [G] That's what [C] we've got Oh
[Eb] [A]
[C] Solid as a rock
Solid [D] as a rock
[Eb] [Bb] [Cm] [Dm]
[Eb] And it's changed it
[F] I [G] feel it [C] still [Gm] [F] Solid
