Bb x3 [Verse 1]
              Bb
For better or worse

               BbM7
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 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

              BbM7
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                    F
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

         Fsus4
Locked away.
[Verse 3]
              Bb
For better or worse

                 BbM7
When we came out east

                     Bb7
I learned that it is not what feels the best

      Eb                        Ebm
It is what will hurt the least

Ebm                         Bb
When I thought that I might start again

        Csus4             C
Got the thought out of my head

      Ebm
Had a child with him instead
[Chorus]
F        Gm
And so I built a home

      Eb
Where I can’t run away

F                Gm
And filled it up with all

    Eb
the reasons I should stay
[Bridge]
       F
But now today

Bb F
I see

    Cm
an open door at last

           Cm           Gm
That could lead me to a future

       Gm             F
That I gave up in the past

Bb F
I see

   Cm
an open door at last

      Cm               Gm
And I wonder what he’d do

            Fsus4     F
If I walked through
[Verse 4]
              Bb
For better or worse

                  F
My vows have been made

                    Bb7
I’m smart enough to know
I’d lose everything
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

        Bb  BbM7    Bb7    Eb    Bb
And the worst
