Bm D A E
Hey I might not really be your mother

That's not the only reason I'm here for ya
[PRE-CHORUS]

I think you're beautiful
D A E
I think you're perfect

I know how hard it gets
D A E
But I swear it's worth it, worth it
[CHORUS]
Bm
Cause what you do, what you do,
D A E
what you do, what you do for love
Bm
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing,
D A E
there ain't nothing I won't do for us

Her mother's supper made me love her like she took me to prom (uh)

And shoutout to the step sisters and the step brothers
