[Verse 1]
(Spoken by Tammy Wynette)
G                           G
- My little girl came up to me in 
the kitchen
      G                        
This evenin' while I was fixin' 
  D
supper.
         D                    D
And she handed me a piece of paper
            Am          D
She'd been writing on, and
                 D                 
After wiping my hands on my apron I
  G
 read it.
     G
And this is what it said:


[Chorus 1]
(Spoken by Tina Wynette)
C                  C      
- "For mowing the yard, five 
    C
dollars.
     C                            
For making my own bed this week, one
D
 dollar.
                           D
Going to the store, fifty cents.
                     D
Playing with little sister
                        D   
While you went to the store, 
              G
twenty-five cents.
                          Bm
Taking out the trash, one dollar.
 C                           C
Getting a good report card, five 
dollars.

[Verse 2]
(Spoken by Tammy Wynette)
Ab                       Ab
- Well, I looked at her standing 
there expectantly
                Eb
And a thousand mem'ries flashed 
through my mind
          Eb                  
And so I picked up the pen and 
 Eb
turning the paper over.
Ab
- This is what I wrote:


[Chorus 2]
(Sung by Tammy Wynette)
        Db
For the nine months I carried you
 Db                    Eb
Growing inside me, no charge.
         Eb
For the nights I sat up with you
 Eb                            
Doctored you prayed for you, no 
  Ab
charge.
                        Db
For the toys, food and clothes
                    Ab             
And for wiping you nose, there's no
  Eb
 charge.
         Eb
When you add it all up
          Eb                  
The full cost of my love is no 
  Ab
charge.


[Verse 3]
(Spoken by Tammy Wynette & "Tina 
Wynette in quotes")
Ab                         Eb
- Well, when she finished reading
         Ab
She had great big old tears in her 
eyes
         Eb
And she looked up at me and said:
 Bb      Eb
"Mom, I sure do love you".
 Bb               Eb
Then she took the pen
        Eb
And in great big letters she wrote:
  Eb
"Paid in full".

When you add it all up

The cost of real love is no charge.
