[Verse 1]
Am
She was 19 with a baby on the way
G
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
Em
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
F G
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
Am G
And, 'cross town she would take the bus at night to a one bedroom apartment
And when she'd turn on the light
Em
She would sit down at the table
Tell herself that it's alright
F G
She was waiting on the day she hoped her baby would arrive
Am G
She'd never be alone
Em
Have someone to hold
And when nights were cold
F
She'd say
[Chorus]
N.C. Am
The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
G
If we got each other, and that's all we have
Em
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
F
You should know I'll be there for you
G Am
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
G
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
Em
I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
F G
You should know I'll be there for you
[Verse 2]
Am
They were 90 and were living out their days
G
on the West-side of the city next to where they got engaged
Em
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
F G
And though life was never easy, they were thankful that they stayed
Am
With each other, and though some times were hard
G
Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart
Em
No, they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
