She was Hm19 with a baby on the way
On the Asus2East-side of the city, she was working every day
Cleaning F#m7dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
She was Gclinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna A/Gchange
AndHm, 'cross town she would take the bus at night
To a Asus2one-bedroom apartment, and when she'd turn on the light
She would F#m7sit down at the table, tell herself that it's alright
She was Gwaiting on the day she hoped her baby would A/Garrive
She'd Hmnever be aloneAsus2
Have someone to holdF#m7
And when nights were coldG
She'd say
The world's not Hm7perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each Aother, and that's Asus2all we have
I will be your F#mmother, and I'll hold F#m7your hand
You should Gknow I'll be there for you
A/GWhen the world's not Hm7perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each Aother then we'll both Asus2be fine
I will be your F#mmother, and I'll hold F#m7your hand
You should Gknow I'll be there for youA/G
They were Hm90 and were living out their days
on the Asus2West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
They had F#m7pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
And though Glife was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
HmWith each other, and though some times were hard
Even Asus2when she made him angry he would never break her heart
No, they F#m7didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
But they Gnever had to travel 'cause they'd never be A/Gapart
HmEven at the endAsus2
Their love was stronger thanF#m7
The day that they first metG
GThey'd say
The world's not Hm7perfect, but it's not that bad
If we got each Aother, and that's Asus2all we have
I will be your F#mmother, and I'll hold F#m7your hand
You should Gknow I'll be there for you
A/GWhen the world's not Hm7perfect

I'm Hm23, and my folks are getting old
I know Asus2they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
So I'm F#m7thankful for my sister, even though sometimes we fight
When Ghigh school wasn't easy, she's the reason I surA/Gvived
I Hmknow she'd never leave me, and I hate to see her cry
So I Asus2wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I F#m7wrote this verse to tell her that I'm always by her side
I Gwrote this verse to tell her A/Gthat
I wrote this verse to tell her that
The world's not Hm7perfect, but it's not that bad
