[Verse]
[Eb2] He was the kind of man that [Bbsus]good men talk [Bb]about
[Eb2] The way he showed his faith was [Bsus]how he lived it [Bb]out.
His [F]hands were rough and calloused and his [Eb6]shoes were old and torn
And the [Cm7/C]lines that framed his smile were lines so [Fsus4/F]well and deep an[F]d worn.
So [Gm]what will be re[Gm/A]membered of [Bb]what he left be[Eb]hind?
[Cm7/C] What will stand the test of [Fsus4/F]time?[F]
[Chorus]
[Bb2]How to love your neighbor and [Cm7/C]how to love your wife
Wrap your a[Gm]rms around your children and [Fsus4]pray with them eac[F]h night.
Thank [Bb2]God for all the good things 'cause the [Cm7]good things are enough
The [Gm7]ties that bind[Eb2] and leave behi[Fsus4]nd a le[F]gac[Bb]y of love.
[Verse]
[Eb2] He worked a second job to [Bsus]make the ends all [Bb]meet
[Eb2] But somehow managed to always [Bbsus]be there for [Bb]me.
[F]Showed me how to listen and how to [Eb6]stand for what is right
And [Cm7/C]taught me all the things that really [Fsus4/F]matter in this [F]life.
[Chorus]
[Bb2]How to love your neighbor and [Cm7/C]how to love your wife
Wrap your a[Gm]rms around your children and [Fsus4/F]pray with them each [F]night.
Thank [Bb2]God for all the good things 'cause the [Cm7]good things are enough
The [Gm7]ties that bind [Eb2]and leave behin[Fsus4]d a leg[F]acy[Bb] of love.
[Bridge]
As I [Eb2]look into the eyes of my [Bb2]daughters and my sons
I [Eb6]hope I've stood for something that they'll [Gm]want to [F]carry [Bb]on[Dm]
'Cause [Eb/C]life is far too [Dm7]short not to [Gm7]finally realize
That its l[Cm7/C]ong enough to [Dm]make a difference [Eb]in someone's [Fsus4/F]life.[F][F7]
[Chorus 2 Key up]
So I'm [C2]gonna love my neighbor [Dm7/D]and I'm gonna love my wife
Wrap my [Am]arms around my children and [Gsus4/G]pray with them each [G]night.
Thank [C2]God for all the good things 'cause the [Dm7/D]good things are enough
The [Am7]ties that bind a[F2]nd leave behind[Gsus4] a legac[G]y o[C]f love
