[Intro]
A
Just eighteen, fresh out of school
D
Got our diplomas and said I do
A
Daddy said boy I don't give you six months
D
The way I see it you've been blinded by lust
E F#m
Settled down in a two-room shack
D A
On a dusty road by the railroad tracks
E F#m
Trains shook the rafters when they rolled by
D
It was cold in December, hot in July
A D A
And there was wind through the window, and rain through the roof
D E
Empty pockets and holes in our shoes
A D A
We just counted on love and it got us through
D E A
And there was wind through the window and rain through the roof
A
I'd pull a double shift start before dawn
D
You're always waiting when I got home
A
After what we've been through I'm amazed we're alive
D
I guess where there's a will there's a way to survive
E F#m
That old picture of Jesus that hung on the wall
D A
When we turned out the lights was the last thing we saw
E F#m
Love carried us on into the night
D
There was just enough wrong to make everything right
A D A
And there was wind through the window, and rain through the roof
D E
Empty pockets and holes in our shoes
A D A
We just counted on love and it got us through
D E A
And there was wind through the window and rain through the roof
A D A
We just counted on love and it got us through
D E A
And there was wind through the window and rain through the roof
[Solo]
A D A
And there was wind through the window, and rain through the roof
D E
Empty pockets and holes in our shoes
A D A
We just counted on love and love got us through
D E A
And there was wind through the window and rain through the roof
E A
And rain through the roof
[Outro]
