Intro: D

Verse 1:
          Bm                   F#m               G               A
There are those who think that love comes with a lifetime guarantee,
       Bm                 F#m              G               A
But we know from those around us, that this may not always be,
         G      D      G             D      G     D      A
It's the simple things that come between a father and a son,
              G      D         G          D     G          D       A
But when they try to talk, the knives are out before they have begun

Chorus:
      D               A               Bm                    G
Well that was me, and I have seen the light that shines for eternity,
    D                G       A        D
Because I learned to say the words “"I love you"

Verse 2:
   Bm                    F#m           G             A
So many hearts have been broken by the lies of history,
    Bm                     F#m           G           A
And so many arms are still open for that final mystery,
        G      D         G        D         G     D      A 
We must show respect for all the rest, and what a man believes,
         G       D     G       D          G         D       A
And the one who died upon the cross, well he is the one for me

Chorus:
              D                A               Bm              
And he said "Come with me and you will see the light that shines 
    G              D                 G       A        D
For eternity, be strong and learn to say the words "I love you"

Bridge:
         Bm      F#m       G      D       Bm       F#m     A
And this endless road that we are on just keeps on going round,
            G                    D                     A
But there's one destination that always is here to be found

Chorus:
    D                 A               Bm                    G
So come with me, and you will see the light that shines for eternity,
     D                 G       A        D
Be strong and learn to say the words "I love you",
     D                 G       A        D
Be strong and learn to say the words "I love you", 
    A        D              A        D              A        D
The words "I love you", the words "I love you", the words "I love you".
