Capo on 3

A               E                  A                E
Alone until my eighteenth year, we met four springs ago
A               E              A                 E
she was shy and had a fear of things she did not know,
A                 E           A           E    A
but we got it on together in such a super way, we held each other
E                   A                 E
close at night and traded dreams each day, and

(chorus)
A          D                                     A
she said, "Rocky I've never been in love before, don't know if I can do it,
E                                       A
but if you let me lean on you, take my hand I might get through it.
       D                                 A
oh and I said, " Baby oh sweet baby it's love will set us free, and
E                                       D                A
God knows if the world should end your love is safe with me.

A                    E                   A               E
We found an old grey house and you would not believe the way
A                      E              A              E    A
we worked at night to fix it up took classes in the day, painting
           E           A              E      A                 E
walls and sippin wine sleepin on the floor, With so much love for
                  A                   E
just two soon we found there'd be one more.

(chorus)
E           D                                   A
she said, "Rocky I've never had a baby before, don't know if I can do it,
E                               A
but if you let me lean on you, take my hand I might get through it.
       D                                  A
oh and I said, " Baby oh sweet baby it's love will set us free, and
E                                       D                A
God knows if the world should end your love is safe with me.

A               E             A                 E     A
We had lots of problems yeah but we had lots of fun, like the crazy
E               A               E    A                E
party when our baby girl turned one, I was proud and satisfied
A                    E     A                E                A
life had so much to give, til the day they told me that she didn't have
         E
long to live.

(chorus)
E           D                                   A
she said, "Rocky I've never had to die before, don't know if I can do it..."
B                F#
Now it's back to two again
     B              F#
The little girl and I
B                  F#
Who looks so much like her sweet mother
B                     F#
Sometimes it makes me cry
B                 F#
I sleep alone at nights again
  B               F#
I walk alone each day
B                       F#
And sometimes when I'm about to give in
   B                   F#
I hear her sweet voice say, to me

E
"Rocky, you know you've been alone before
B
You know that you can do it
F#             
But if you'd like to lean on me
B
Take my hand, I'll help you through it" (through it)
E
I said, "Baby, oh sweet baby
     B
It's love that sets us free
       F#
And I told you when the world would end
     E                  D
Your love was safe with me"

She said,
E
"Rocky, you know you've been alone before
B
You know that you can do it
F#
But if you'd like to lean on me
