[Verse 1]

I had a hundred dollar ring in my hand

So weak and tired I could barely stand

So with a hopeful heart I hit one knee

With a tear in her eye she looked at me

G A D D/C# Bm

It was the moment of truth, I was scared to death

A G

My life hung on what that tear meant

Em D/F# G

Then she smiled at me, and I lost it...

[Chorus]

A D G

No one can make me cry, make me laugh

D A G A

Make me smile or drive me mad, like she does

D G

It's like a curse that is the cure

D A

Better or worse, one thing's for sure

It's real love

D A G

And I don't know what I'd do if I lost it

D G
