Verse 1:
G+G     D MajorD          A augmentedA       B minorBm
 For five months eight days my wife and I had waited
G+G        D MajorD      A augmentedA
 Gettin' ready for our baby girl
G+G       D MajorD         A augmentedA       B minorBm
 But when he called the doctor said I need to see you
E minorEm          A augmentedA
 And could you come in soon
   B minorBm               G+G
Then something died inside of me to sit with him and hear
  B minorBm          D MajorD      G+G
The tests that said our baby may not live to be a year
E minorEm            G+G
 And turning to my wife he said "What do you wanna do?"
A augmentedA
 And she said...

Chorus 1:
     D MajorD      E minorEm       G+G    A augmentedA
I wanna give her the world, I wanna hold her hand
     D MajorD   E minorEm     G+G     A augmentedA
I wanna be her mom for as long as I can
      B minorBm     A augmentedA    D MajorD       G+G
And I wanna live every moment until that day comes
             A augmentedA      D MajorD  G+G
I wanna show her what it means to be loved


Verse 2:
G+G    D MajorD       A augmentedA        B minorBm
 So we spent each day, watchin' every minute
G+G       D MajorD      A augmentedA
 And prayin' for our baby girl
G+G      D MajorD       A augmentedA       Bm7Bm7
 And I will not forget the way I felt that moment
E minor 7Em7          A augmentedA
 When she came into this world
     B minorBm               G+G
But they took her from the room just as soon as she was born
   B minorBm         A augmentedA       G+G       D MajorD
And watchin' through a window I could see her holdin' on
E minorEm          G+G
 When a voice inside me said . . .

Chorus 2:
     D MajorD      E minorEm       G+G   A augmentedA
I wanna give her the world, I wanna be her dad
     D MajorD     E minorEm     G+G     A augmentedA
I wanna hold her close for as long as I can
      B minorBm     A augmentedA    D MajorD       G+G
And I wanna live every moment until that day comes
             A augmentedA      D MajorD
I wanna show her what it means to be loved


Bridge:
G+G           A augmentedA
Ever since the day we got to bring her home
 D MajorD               G+G
She's been out to prove the doctors wrong
G+G                    A augmentedA
Oh and you should see her now, she's as pretty as her mom
       G+G                       A augmentedA
And theres a boy at the front door waiting just to take her to her high school prom . . .


End Chorus:
         D MajorD      E minorEm       G+G    A augmentedA
And he wants to give her the world, wants to hold her hand
     D MajorD    E minorEm    G+G    A augmentedA
And someday she may get a wedding band
        B minorBm     A augmentedA    D MajorD       G+G
But she's gonna live every moment until that day comes
                 A augmentedA      D MajorD
And we're gonna show her what it means to be loved
G+G
 Oh yeah (what it means to be loved)
               D MajorD
Show her what it means to be loved
           G+G
What it means to be loved
