If We Have Each Other

       Am
She was 19 with a baby on the way
        G
On the East-side of the city

She was working every day
          Em
Cleaning dishes in the evening

She could barely stay awake
         F
She was clinging to the feeling
                               G
That her luck was gonna change
     Am
And, 'cross town she would take the 
bus
              G
At night to a one bedroom apartment

And when she'd turn on the light
           Em
She would sit down at the table

Tell herself that it's alright
         F
She was waiting on the day
                            G
She hoped her baby would arrive
     Am               G
She'd never be alone
                       Em
Have someone to hold

And when nights were cold
F
She'd say

               Am
The world's not perfect, but it's 
not that bad
           G
If we got each other, and that's all
 we have
               Em
I will be your mother, and I'll hold
 your hand
           F
You should know I'll be there for 
you
           G         Am
When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind
            G
If we have each other then we'll 
both be fine
                Em
I will be your mother, and I'll hold
 your hand
           F                     
You should know I'll be there for 
       G
you

They were 90 and were living out 
their days
       G
On the West-side of the city

Next to where they got engaged
         Em
They had pictures on the walls

Of all the memories that they'd made
           F
And though life was never easy
                                G
They were thankful that they stayed
Am
With each other, and though some 
times were hard
     G
Even when she made him angry

He would never break her heart
         Em
No, they didn't have the money to 
afford a fancy car
          F
But they never had to travel
                           G
'Cause they'd never be apart
Am              G
Even at the end, their love was 
stronger
    Em
Than the day that they first met
 F
They say

               Am
The world's not perfect, but it's 
not that bad
           G
If we got each other, and that's all
 we have
               Em
I will be your lover, and I'll hold 
your hand
           F
You should know I'll be there for 
you
           G         Am
When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind
            G
If we have each other then we'll 
both be fine
                Em
I will be your lover, and I'll hold 
your hand
           F
You should know I'll be there for 
you

Am   G    Em
Oh  ooh oooh
           F                     
You should know I'll be there for 
     G
you

   Am
I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
       G
I know they don't have forever

And I'm scared to be alone
       Em
So I'm thankful for my sister

Even though sometimes we fight
     F
When high school wasn't easy
                        G
She's the reason I survived
  Am
I know she'd never leave me

And I hate to see her cry
      G
So I wrote this verse to tell her

That I'm always by her side
  Em
I wrote this verse to tell her

That I'm always by her side
  F
I wrote this verse to tell her that

                Am
The world's not perfect, but it's 
not that bad
          G
If we got each other, and that's all
 we have
               Em
I will be your brother, and I'll 
hold your hand
          F
You should know I'll be there for 
you
       G             Am
When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind
           G
If we have each other then we'll 
both be fine
               Em
I will be your brother, and I'll 
hold your hand
           F                     
You should know I'll be there for 
    G
you

Am  G   Em
Oh ooh oooh
           F                     
You should know I'll be there for 
    G  Am
you
