F Dm Am
You can put 'em on the counter, there with all the other flowers
F Dm Am
And help me figure out how to turn off this TV
F Dm Am
I'm glad you made the visit, and if you think you have a minute
Gm C/E F
You should sit and talk until it's time to leave
F Dm Am
Is my granddaughter Ruthie still working at the movies?
F Dm Am
Does she still let all her boyfriends in for free?
F Dm Am
Does she still stare out of the front door as she's serving people popcorn
Gm C/E F
And talk about how nice today was supposed to be?
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go
F Dm Am
Did you notice walking over at the house down at the corner
F Dm Am
There's a dog behind a window that doesn't move
F Dm Am
I've seen him staring in the mornings, I've seen him staring in the evenings
Gm C/E F
As if time stops until his master's in the room
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go
F Dm Am
Some nights get worse than others, and I start thinking about your mother
F Dm Am
And she's here with me as far as I can tell
F Dm Am
As if the world revealed its secret and it's asking me to keep it
Gm C/E F
Like a kid that hears the ocean in a shell
A# F
And that's the love that I came to bear witness to
A# F
And the love I'm taking with me when I go
Gm A# C
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Gm A# C
Oh oh oh oh oh,
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, that's the love that I came to bear witness to
Gm A# C A# F
Oh oh oh oh oh, and the love I'm taking with me when I go
A# F
And the love I'm taking with me when I go
