INTRO  
 
 
G             Bm7            C(9)              G/B 
 First time I felt it, think I was five years old. 
      Am7                                C7M           D 
I was scared, had a nightmare, Momma was there for me to hold. 
G              Bm7             C(9)            G/B 
 Daddy, he was different... he never said it much, 
      Am7                                      C7M              D 
But I heard him loud and clear when he brought home that ball and glove. 
Em            D/F#           C(9)  D/F# 
 Then it took on a brand new meaning, 
Em        D/F#          C(9)    G/B               Bb6   D  
 I wasn't just a boy no more, when she moved in next door. 
 
 
G                            D/F#          
 Where you from? What's your name? 
               Em 
Wanna go to my game? 
                   C         D 
Got the keys to my Dad's old truck. 
G               D/F#                Em 
 Turn the radio off to remember the song, 
        D                  C 
We held hands and there it was, 
D/F#   G   D/F#  Em  C  D 
Lo  -  ve. 
 
 
G              Bm7              C(9)               G/B 
 Pages kept on turnin', there I was with someone else. 
Am7                                 C7M        D 
First time in my lifetime, I wasn't livin' for myself. 
G                Bm7         C(9)               G/B 
 I knew I wasn't fallin', anywhere I'd fell before. 
Am7                              C7M           D 
This place was different: it was deeper, it was more. 
Em            D/F#           C(9)  D/F# 
 Then it took on a brand new meaning, 
Em            D/F#       C(9)           G/B           Bb6  D 
 Yeah, it was strong and it was true, knew what I had to do. 
  
 
G                     D/F# 
 Found a ring, hit my knees, 
                        Em 
Couldn't talk, couldn't breathe, 
                C          D 
My heart had me all choked up. 
G                   D/F#          
 Said "I do," as we cried, wedding bells, 
Em                 D                    C 
Waved goodbye, the whole church knew it was 
D/F#   G 
Lo  -  ve. 
 
 
G  D/F#  Em  C  D  G  D/F#  Em  C  D 
INSTRUMENTAL 
 
 
Em            D/F#           C(9)  D/F# 
 Then it took on a brand new meaning, 
Em        D/F#              C(9)            G/B       Bb6    D 
 When the doctor said "It's time to watch your miracle arrive." 
 
 
A                        E/Ab 
 Thank the Lord, cut the cord. 
               F#m 
Take her home, help her grow. 
       E                D  Esus   A  E/Ab  F#m 
And complete the circle of lo  -  ve. 
D   E  A  E/Ab  F#m 
Lo  -  ve. 
           D         E    A  E/Ab  F#m  D  E  (to fade) 
That's the circle of lo - ve.
