[Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
A
For all the times you
stood by me
F#m
Through right and wrong
    Bm
For being there to catch
            D  Dm
me when I'd fall
  A
I love you for your faith in me
    F#m                 E
For all the joys you've given me
            A
But there's one thing makes
   E                A
me love you most of all

[Chorus]
    F#m              B
You never gave up on me when
      E                 A
I was giving love up on you
      D#m                 G#
Every time I thought this love
can't work
    C#m              C#
You stayed to see it through
    F#m              B
You never gave up on me
           E
when I was making
                A
Things rough on you
        D#m7              G#
And you showed me what it really
         E
means to love somebody

[Verse 2]
    A
And though sometimes we might
               F#m
not see things eye to eye
       Bm
You've always met me more
              Dm
than half the way
       A
So for all the times
I've let you down
        F#m
And you could have packed
     A
your things and gone
                   E
I love you most of all
            A
because you stayed

[Chorus]
    F#m              B
You never gave up on me when
      E                 A
I was giving love up on you
      D#m              G#7
Never mattered who was right
or wrong
    C#m              C#
You stayed to see it through
    F#m              B
You never gave up on me
           E
When I was making things
         A
rough on you
        D#m
And you showed me what
   G#7             C#
it really means to love

[Bridge]
           F#
There were times I just knew you
        C#m
Did not understand the moods
          D#m
All those long and
          G#              C#
sleepless nights I put us through
              F#
But you stuck by me anyway
        C#m       A#m
Gave me love everyday
                D#
And now there's nothing
                         G#
In this world I wouldn't do for you
