Intro:  Em C (2x) 
 
Em                 C 
More wishes than a thousand hearts can count for you 
Em                 C 
More smiles than a merry-go-round 
Em                       C 
The sweetest ending to a bed time story told 
G       D                     Em 
My love follows you where you go 
 
Em                 C 
More laughter than a kindergarten out to play 
Em                 C 
One Sunday morning song that says it all 
Em                 C 
More Summer than the California beach can hold 
G       D                     Em 
My love follows you where you go 
 
 
D                      Am            D 
Future like a promise, your city of gold 
D                          Am             D 
Stubborn in your bones and Jesus in your soul 
D                      Am           
Seeing you stand there staring at the unknown                
C                             Am         D                     C 
I won't pretend that it's not killing me watching you walk away slow 
 
Lead Break: Em C 
 
Take forgiveness take a prayer or take the deepest breath 
And take the answers in your heart 
When you wake up and the world is cruel and cold 
My love follows you where you go 
 
Chorus 
 
Lead Break ? different chords for banjo lead? 
 
More freedom than a field of flowers in a wind 
More beauty than a morning after rain 
Up the steepest hill, the dark and crooked road 
My love follows you where you go 
 
Chorus: Em  C  D Em
