1.     Your love the hell out of me, and Heaven's where we could be,

Dm                                                        C                             - E

      I've stood on the edge of love but never took the leap.

Am                                                  F

    And you took my armor off and did it delicately,

Dm                                               C                                 E

     and I let my guard down to show you what's underneath.

         F

    Thank God that you were man enough to come,

    Dm

    answer my mamma's prayers.

        F                                                                      G

    You asked the question, I said, “Yes”, but I'm scared.

 

                     C                        - Em         Am                         - F

'Cause I've never worn white,         but I wanna get it right,

              C                      - Em        Am

yeah, I really wanna try          with you !

               C                         - Em               Am                            - F

2.      See us in sixty years with a full family tree,

Dm                                                         C                     E 

     give my blood, sweat, and tears to reach our destiny.

Am                                                   F

     'Cause love is a minefield, let's take this war, baby,

Dm                                      C                                              E

    'cause at the end of it all I choose you and you choose me.

    Thank God, I was woman enough to come,

    Dm

    answer your father's prayers.

        F                                                                      G
