Bb x2
[Verse 1]
Bb For better or worse Bbmaj7 For rich or for poor Bb7 My husband has delivered on the rich part Eb Ebm But the better, I’m not sure Bb And then to learn my soldier has returned C It’s a blessing and a curse Ebm Is it for better or for worse
[Verse 2]
Bb To have and to hold Bbmaj7 Till death do us part Bb7 So certain that my soldier had been lost Eb Ebm And with him half my heart Bb I spoke those words to gain security C It was maybe a mistake Ebm And the only choice to make
[Chorus]
F Gm And so I built a home Ebsus2 Beyond my childhood dreams F Gm Eb I built a perfect place to stay F Locked away.
[Verse 3]
Bb For better or worse Bbmaj7 When we came out east Bb7 I learned that it is not what feels the best Eb It is what will hurt the least Ebm Bb When I thought that I might start again C Got the thought out of my head Ebm Had a child with him instead
[Chorus]
F Gm Eb I knew I had to build a home and make it last F Gm Eb And fill it up with all the reasons Eb Gm/D F/C F Not to think about the past
[Bridge]
Bb Bb We danced with those soldiers like they were ghosts F Gm We kissed them with unspoken last goodbyes Eb Bb So certain that they were gone Eb F We mourned them and then moved on Ab Eb F Hoping half a heart's enough to build upon
[Verse 4]
Bb For better or worse Bbmaj7 My vows have been made Bb7 I’m smart enough to know

Eb If i ever strayed Ebm Bb All the while my husband has his fun C And the roles do not reverse Ebm Its for the better and the worst
Bb Bbmaj7 Bb7 Eb Ebm
[Outro]
A melody drifting across the bay
Bb A song of a summer from long ago Gm F A chorus that amplifies Gm F Every last compromise Bb F What good comes from knowing that he survived Gm F What good comes from knowing what he became Eb F To know there's an open door Eb F Where there wasn't one before F And I wonder what he'd do F Gm Eb Bb If I walked through
