Capo on 1st fret
               
 
 
Intro: 
 
 
 
verse 1: 
NC    Dm 
I was young (BOP) 
    Dm/C          Dm  
And didn't have nowhere to run 
     Dm/C        Dm           
I needed to wake up and see 
     Dm/C   Dm 
What was in front of me 
     Dm/C  G 
Nah, Nah, Oh 
G                 G7  
There had to be a better way 
            A7        C  C#m 
To show I'm grateful, hmmmmm 
Dm      Dm/C         Dm    Dm/C 
So I thought up this song 
           Dm     Dm/C             Dm          Dm/C 
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long 
A                       F 
You don't know much you mean to me 
 
 
Dm         Dm/C#                 Cadd2 
Cause even though when times got rough 
          G/B 
You never turned away 
         Bm6 
You were right there 
      A          A/C# 
And I thank you, thank you 
Dm     Dm/C#       Cadd2 
When I felt I had enough 
          G/B 
You never turned away 
         Bm6 
You were right there 
      A          A/C# 
And I thank you, thank you 
 
 
verse 2: 
Dm 
All through my life 
  Dm/C      Dm                 Dm/C 
I knew that you'd be my world 
Dm           Dm/C    Dm 
Knowing everywhere I go 
                  Dm/C          Dm 
Things you taught me they would show 
Dm 
So many times and changes 
Dm/C 
You've seen me through 
        Dm                                   Dm/C 
I sure enough couldn't have survived without you 
Dm       Dm/C            Dm    Dm/C 
And so I thought up this song 
           Dm       Dm/C           Dm      Dm/C 
To show my appreciation for lovin' me so long 
A                                   A7 
You don't know how much you mean to me 
 
 
Dm         Dm/C#                 Cadd2 
Cause even though when times got rough 
          G/B 
You never turned away 
         Bm6 
You were right there 
      A          A/C# 
And I thank you, thank you 
Dm     Dm/C#       Cadd2 
When I felt I had enough 
          G/B

You were right there 
      A          A/C#
