(C major) (E minor) (C major) (F major)
(F minor) (C major) (D major) (F minor) (G major)
My (E minor) Love
Verse 1
(C major) and I,
we'd both been through
The (E minor) worst of times and seen
them through
Bound (C major) together and loved as one
(A minor) But she (F major) came to me with
a stranger's son
Hop (F minor) ing the love for me that she had
Would (C major) help me make him a happy lad
And (D major) wipe away any foolish pride
That might (F minor) keep him from my side
(G major) So he (C major) went and I was faced
with a child of three
Know (E minor) ing he did not belong to me
I could (C major) see in him (B flat major) his father's eyes
I (F major) hated him for just being alive
These (F minor) images came from out
of the past
Causing (C major) bitter feelings
that seemed to last
But she (F sharpdim) tried to make me un (D major) derstand
You can (Gsus4) love the child
and hate (G major) the man
Lord, (E flat major) my father, my (B flatsus4) son and I
Will we ever be (E flat major) together As one
Me and my (Csus4) father, my (C major) son
As time passed I could tell he needed me
It helped (E minor) to fight off my jealousy
My (C major) love for Joe had (B flat major) surely grown
I'd (F major) learn to treat him like my own
He re (F minor) paid me with a million smiles
There was (C major) love and trust in
the eyes of my child
Many (F sharpdim) times we walked hand -in -hand
(D major) He was (F minor) only five, but he was (G major) quite a man
(E flat major) Soon I learned I was out of swing
My wife grew (G minor) heavier day by day
I re (E flat major) member pacing the hospital hall
My (A flat major) heart soared as my (F minor) name was called
Till (B major) I heard what the doctor said
I'm (E flat major) sorry, your wife and baby are dead
Little (F major) Joe lied out with a tall scream
I (B flatsus4) stood there (B flat major) numb
and shattered my dreams
(F sharp major) Lord, (C sharpsus4) my fatherless son and I
Now we're together, (F sharp major)
bound forever (C sharpsus4)
As (E flat major) one, me and my fatherless son (C major) (E minor)
(C major) (F major) (F minor)
(C major) (F sharpdim) (D major) (F sharpdim) (F minor) (G major)
My (E flat major) whole world came to
a sudden stop,
didn't know if I (G minor) could go on or not
Till I (E flat major) looked in Joe's little (D flatdim) sad eye (D flat major) s,
I (A flat major) held him close, we (F minor) both cried
I could (B major) never again love anyone,
so (E flat major) fate made Joe my only son
I thank (F major) God for the day we're joined,
I (B flatsus4) found my (B flat major) love in the eyes of my son
(F sharp major) Mom, my fatherless (C sharpsus4) son and I,
now we're together, (F sharp major)
born forever (C sharpsus4)
As (D sharp major) one, me and my fatherless son
Mo (F sharp major) m, my (C sharpsus4) fatherless son and I,
now we're togeth (F sharp major) er (C sharpsus4)
As one, me (F sharp major) (C sharpsus4) and my
(D sharp major) fatherless son,
together as one
My, (F sharp major) my (C sharpsus4) fatherless son and I,
now we're to (F sharp major) gether, bound (C sharpsus4) forever,
as (D sharp major) one, me and my fatherless son
My, (F sharp major) my (C sharpsus4) fatherless son and I,
now we're togeth (F sharp major) er,
bound forever (C sharpsus4) , as (E flat major) one,
me and my fatherless son
