Tuning: Standard Key: E 🎸 Verse 1: D Patience is a virtue D Battered up and beaten A By the road that horse has traveled A And I've rode so far my rope G Has come unraveled in the rain G
Sometimes I get so tired D A I don't know if I'll get home again 🎸 Verse 2: D And Cecil was the first man D To ever teach me patience was A In the palm of my hand A He said, "Girl, work hard G And just be good to the land G D And you'll find love in all that glitters A Sometimes it's tiny as a splinter" 🎸 Chorus: D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me D Until the end of time G Darling, won't you say D You will always be mine? A And if I start to stumble A G As I make my way back to your arms A And I'll remember how you told me A G Our love was written out amongst the stars A And you're never too far 🎸 Verse 3: D So I'll try to show you patience D A Even when the whole wide world goes crazy G Even when I get so mad I just can't take it G Sometimes it's hard to shake it D But I made you a promise A And I swear that I won't break it 🎸 Chorus: D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me D Until the end of time G Darling, won't you say D You will always be mine? A And if I start to stumble A G As I make my way back to your arms A And I'll remember how you told me A G Our love was written out amongst the stars A D And you're never too far 🎸 Bridge: D It's a beautiful morning Em To tell someone you love them G To tell someone you're thinking of them A D All throughout the day D And then in the evening Em We'll lay side by side G A There's no other place I'd like to D A Hide away 🎸 Verse 4: D So that's patience, hope, and kindness D A And all of those things that we call on to remind us A G Of all the love and the trust we have inside us G So that evil just can't find us D I'll keep my heart protected A So that nothing can divide us 🎸 Chorus: D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me D G As long as I can be good enough for you D That's good enough for me
