C Am F G C
Am F
[Verse]
G C
For the life of me
Am
Ya know I can't recall
F G
My father giving mighty words of wisdom
C
But the more I live I see
Am
The greatest gift of all
F
Is how I always knew for sure
G
He was Listening
F
To a million questions
C G
I felt like a fool to ask
F C
When I'd ask him for an answer
G
He'd just laugh
[Chorus]
F C
And say the more I learn the more I learn how little that I know
G
But I'm close to understanding
F C
Just how far I have to go
Am
We give our hearts
F
We take our chances
C G
And know the fool ain't the one
Am
With all the questions
F G
To tell the truth it's someone who
C
Believes they have the answer
[Instrumental]
Am F G C (x2)
[Verse]
C
In the years since then
Am
When my children come
F
Pouring out their hearts
G
This old world has broken
C
I do the listening
Am
I see what good it does
F G
When less not more is spoken
F C
And when they press me hard to tell them
G
What the answer is
F C
I remember well and simply
G
Offer this
[Chorus]
F C
And say the more I learn the more I learn how little that I know
G
But I'm close to understanding
F C
Just how far I have to go
Am
We give our hearts
G F
We take our chances
C G
And know the fool ain't the one
Am
With all the questions
F G
To tell the truth it's someone who
C
Believes they have the answer
[Chorus]
F C
And say the more I learn the more I learn how little that I know
G
But I'm close to understanding
F C
Just how far I have to go
Am
We give our hearts
F
We take our chances
C G
And know the fool ain't the one
Am
With all the questions
F G
To tell the truth it's someone who
C
Believes they have the answer
