[Verse]
C Am F C
How come love was simpler when I could barely stand?
C Am F C
Worrying was harder when I had to hold your hand
C Am F C
‘Cause my two feet hadn’t yet learned how to walk
C Am F C
And my own voice hadn’t yet come out to talk
C Am F C
But I knew love because I knew you
C Am
And I believed that everything you told me
F C
Would come out true
Am F C
‘Cause love is patient, and love is kind
C Am F C
Love delights in the truth and is all you need to find
[Verse]
C Am F C
But as I grew older I learned to complicate
C Am F C
Things you made so simple and I did some things I hate
C Am F C
And I became so afraid of making mistakes
C Am F C
‘Cause one hard fall is all that it takes
C Am F C
To make you question the man you thought you’d be
C Am F C
And I began to question the bright things you see in me
C Am F C
But love is patient, and love is kind
C Am F C
Love doesn’t keep a record of what’s behind
C Am F C
And I’ve heard my strength comes from your joy
C Am F C
Maybe that’s why I felt stronger when I was a boy
C Am F C
Maybe I grew up too fast, or maybe I never did
C Am
But I learned to bury and to chain
F C
And from you I ran and hid
C Am
You know I want to finish strong
F C
But I’m having trouble at the start
C Am
And I’ve forgotten where to dig
F C
To unearth my beating heart
C Am F C
But love is patient, and love is kind
C Am F C
Love revives the heart and transforms the mind
[Verse]
G F
And you say, son, throw your delight on me
G F
And you’ll become the man you want to be
G F
And my love will never fail you
G F
And my love will never fail you
G F C
And always remember.....love is kind
Am F C
‘Cause love is patient, and love is kind
C Am F C
Love delights in the truth and is all you need to find
