(verse 1) 
D                        D/F# 
A lot of people breaking hearts these days, 
G                           A  
Giving up and just walking away, 
D               D/F#  
Forever's just another word, 
         G                 G/A   A   
That you hear young lovers say, 
Eb            Eb/G                
I know it may be old fashioned, 
G           G/A      A  
But I still believe, 
E                   A/D  
Love stays when the strong winds blow, 
F                    Ab/Bb        
Even when it hurts, don't let go,

You've got to treat her right, understand, 
     Db                            Ab/C           
That she's your woman and you're her man, 
D/A               B 
Tell her that you need her, 
          F                A  
Like the desert needs the rain, 
                      D      A/D  
And if you treat her right, show her you care, 
C                  B6 B5          
When you need her she'll be there, 
        D/A           B  
Like an island in the storm, 
                E 
A beacon in the night, 
       G/A               
If you love her, treat her right,

A good woman ain't easy to find, 
Ab                                 A  
The faithful and the lovin' kind, 
Eb                D/F# 
And if you don't hold her tight, 
       Ab                      Ab/Bb  Bb          
She'll slip right through your hands,

So be willing for her sake, 
F                      Bb/D       
Stand by her when the strong winds blow, 
E                  G/A     
Even when it hurts, don't let go,
