I found a little girl and I fell in love

Left me and momma, I was just a kid

He took off runnin', I never saw his face again

So, when it comes to love, I ain't the trustin' kind

There's a whole lotta scars on this heart of mine

I still want you to wear my ring

I'll treat you just like my daddy did
E                         E/A
He took me fishin' when I was a kid
        D/F#
When I played ball, he never missed a game
         E                      E/A
When it comes to love, I'm the trusting kind
       E                      E/A
There ain't no scars on this heart of mine

And all your fears are gonna fade away

Together we're gonna build a bridge
    A                                   A Asus A
No, I won't treat ya like your daddy did
       E                                E/A
We'll have the kind of love that's the trusting kind
       E                          E/A
I'll give you ever piece of this heart of mine
        D/F#                               E
We were meant to be, I'm pretty sure we can
