G     D       A

[Verse 1]

D                             A
Grandma and grandpa painted a picture
   Bm                     A
Of 65 years in one little house
G                                      D
More than a memory, more than saying I do
A
Kiss you goodnights and I love you's
D                               A
Me and you, baby, walk in their footsteps
Bm7                               A
Build our own family one day at a time
G                              D
10 little toes, a painted blue room
    A
Our beautiful baby looks just like you

[Chorus 1]

          D          G D            Bm
And we'll build this lo-ve from the ground up
            D          G
Now 'til forever, it's all of me, all of you
             D        A
Just take my hand and I'll be the man your dad hoped that I'd be
          D                         Bbm7
And we'll build this love from the ground up
N.C.
For worse or for better
     G
And I will be all you need

                                   A
Beside you, I'll stand through the good and the bad
N.C.
We'll give all that we have
          G                              D
And we'll build this love from the ground up

[Verse 2]

                                        A
This life will go by in the blink of an eye
      Bm7                             Bm        A
But I wouldn't wanna spend it without you by my side
    G
The clouds are gonna roll, the earth's gonna shake
     A
But I'll be your shelter through the wind and the rain

[Chorus 2]

          D                        Bm7
And we'll build this love from the ground up
                       G
Now 'til forever, it's all of me, all of you
N.C.
Just take my hand
  A
'Cause you are the man my dad hoped that you'd be
          D                        Bm7
And we'll build this love from the ground up
N.C.
For worse or for better
    G
And I will be all you need
                          A
Beside you, I'll stand through the good and the bad

We'll give all that we have
          G            A                 D
And we'll build this love from the ground up

[Verse 3]

D                                    A
Someday, we'll wake up, thousands of pictures
Bm7       Bm          A
65 years, this little house
  G                                        D
I won't trade for nothin' the life that we built
     A
I'll kiss you goodnight and say I love you still

[Chorus 3]

          D                        Bm7
And we'll build this love from the ground up
N.C.
For worse or for better
    G
And I will be all you need
                                   A
Beside you, I'll stand through the good and the bad
N.C.
We'll give all that we have
          G                        D
And we'll build this love from the ground up
