G
They worked their way their college
G
Saving pennies for the life they wanted
C
Dreamin bout a little house with a yard


[Verse 2]
G
He bought her lay way diamond
G
She said yes and she couldn't stop smilin
C
It wasn't much, but it was a start


[Chorus]
        Em              D              C
For the fire that still burns in their hearts
                G
They kept every vow
G
Somehow they held on through every storm
               Em
They worked it out
Em
When the going got rough they never
                              C
Gave up on the love that they found
                                                  D
From you may kiss the bride, that summer day in '85
                                    G
From then until now they kept every vow


[Verse 3]
G
Four kids and a few years later
                D
Cancer came and tried to take her
C
He never left her side


[Verse 4]
G
That time that he got fired

She said we'll be alright
    C
Her faith in him and god never died


[Chorus]
            Em          D             C
Through the ups and the downs of this life
                G
They kept every vow
G
Somehow they held on through every storm
               Em
They worked it out
Em
When the going got rough they never
                              C
Gave up on the love that they found
                                                  D
From you may kiss the bride, that summer day in '85
                                     G
From then until now, they kept every vow
                Em   C
They kept every vow


[Bridge]
Em            D             C
God knows its been far from perfect
    Em               D                   C
But all that they've been through's been worth it


[Chorus]
                G
They kept every vow
G
Somehow they held on through every storm
               Em
They worked it out
Em
When the going got rough they never
                              C
Gave up on the love that they found
                                                  D
From you may kiss the bride, that summer day in '85
                                     G
From then until now, they kept every vow
                Em   C
They kept every vow


[Outro]

They worked their way their college
G                                      C7  C
Saving pennies for the life they wanted
