[Verse 1]
C Csus4/D
Here we are now, ten years running
Am7 Gsus4
Doesn't feel that long at all
C Csus4/D
I remember the 8th of August
Am7 Gsus4 Fsus2 G
Dancing in the wedding hall
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Fsus2 G
We were so young, there’s so much that we couldn't have known
Fsus2 G
We're just beginning to see what the future can hold
[Chorus 1]
Fsus2
I’m learning that love is a
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
Beautiful garden that's bursting with color when tended with care
Fsus2
And I'm learning that love is a wild endeavor
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
With no guarantees but the life that we share
Fsus2
And I'm learning that love is a sign and a wonder
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
And healing us more than we ever could know
Am Gsus4 Dm7
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
Am7 Gsus4 Dm7
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
C/E C/F Fsus2
To have and to hold
[Verse 2]
C Csus4/D
Can't believe how fast they're growing
Am7 Gsus4
We were warned, but I'm still surprised
C Csus4/D
Children play, but, oh, they’re watching
Am7 Gsus4
Learning love before their eyes
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fmaj7 G
We’re sharpening arrows and aiming them into the sky
Fmaj7 G
And over and over, we're helping them learn how to fly
[Chorus 2]
Fsus2 Fsus2/E Dm7
We’ll show them a love that can live through an argument
G Cmaj7/E
Filled with forgiveness when hurt has been done
Fsus2 Fsus2/E Dm7
And we'll show them a love that can handle misfortune
G Cmaj7/E
And still be around when the morning has come
Fmaj7
And I'm not naive, we've got miles to go
G Cmaj7/E
But we’ve proven our love can grow deeper with time
Am7 G Dm7
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
Am7 G Dm7
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
C/E C/F Fsus2
To have and to hold
[Post-Chorus]
Em
All our days
Dm7
To have and to hold
Gsus4
Oh
[Chorus 1]
Fsus2
I’m learning that love is a
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
Beautiful garden that's bursting with color when tended with care
Fsus2
And I'm learning that love is a wild endeavor
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
With no guarantees but the life that we share
Fsus2
And I'm learning that love is a sign and a wonder
Gsus4 Cmaj7/E
And healing us more than we ever could know
Am Gsus4 Dm7
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
Am7 Gsus4 Dm7
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
C/E C/F Fsus2
To have and to hold
[Tag]
Em
All our days
Dm7
To have and to hold
[Outro]
Gsus4 Gsus4 C
Here we are now ten years running
Doesn't feel that long at all
I remember the 8th of August
Dancing in the wedding hall
We were so young, there's so much that we couldn't have known
We're just beginning to see what the future can hold
I'm learning that love is a beautiful garden
That's bursting with color when tended with care
And I'm learning that love is a wild endeavor
With no guarantees but the life that we share
And I'm learning that love is a sign and a wonder
Healing us more than we ever could know
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
To have and to hold
Can't believe how fast they're growing
We were warned, but I'm still surprised
Children play but oh they're watching
Learning love before their eyes
We're sharpening arrows and aiming them into the sky
Over and over we're helping them learn how to fly
We'll show them a love that can live through an argument
Filled with forgiveness when hurt has been done
And we'll show them a love that can handle misfortune
And still be around when the morning has come
And I'm not naive we've got miles to go
But we've proven our love can grow deeper with time
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
To have and to hold
All our days
To have and to hold
I'm learning that love is a beautiful garden
That's bursting with color when tended with care
And I'm learning that love is a wild endeavor
With no guarantees but the life that we share
And I'm learning that love is a sign and a wonder
Healing us more than we ever could know
And there's plenty of reasons why things can be left to grow cold
But I still believe in our promise to have and to hold
To have and to hold
All our days
To have and to hold
