[Verse 1]
G
In this life there will be trouble
Em
But you shall overcome
C
They’ll hurt you in your heartstrings
D
They’ll leave you in the dust
G
But you do just like I told you
Em
Stand strong and hold your own
C
A soft answer quiets wrath
D
A gentle whisper breaks a bone
[Chorus]
G D Em C
I can’t tell you who to love
G D Em C
I don’t know who that might be
G D
I hope they cheer you up like crazy
Em C
Sweep you right up off your feet
G D Em C
Though I don’t want you to grow up
G D Em C
‘Cause I don’t want you to leave

Make sure they love you

Make sure they love you half as much as me

[Verse 2]
G
In the night there will be darkness
Em
But your light is bright enough
C
There’ll be lovers sometimes leaving
D
And lovers you’ll stand up
G
But you do just like I told you
Em
Keep your heart above all things
C
It’s a wicked world, my lovely
D
But you don’t have to let it in
[Chorus]
G D Em C
I can’t tell you who to love
