Love, Me - Collin Raye
[C] [Am] [Dm] [G] [C][F][C]
[C] I read a note my [Am]grandma wrote
Back in [F]nineteen twenty-[C] three
Grandpa kept it [Am] in his coat
And he [Dm] showed it once to [G] me
He said, [C] "Child, you might not [Am] understand
But a [F] long, long time a- [C] go
Grandma's daddy didn't [Am] like me none
But I [F] loved your [G] Grandma [C] so [F] [C]
[C] "We had this crazy [Am] plan to meet
[F] And run away to-[C] gether
Get married in the [Am] first town
We came [Dm] to and live for- [G] ever
[C] But nailed to the [Am] tree
Where we were [F] supposed to meet, in-[C]stead
I found this [Am] letter
And [F] this is [G] what it [C] said [F] [C]
|[Chorus]
|'If you [F] get there [G] before I [C] do
|[F] Don't give [G] up on [C] me
|I'll [F] meet you when my [G] chores are [Am] through
|[Dm] I don't know how long I'll [G] be
|But I'm [F] not gonna [G] let you [C] down
|[F] Darling, [G] wait and [Am] see
|And be-[F] tween now and [G] then, till I [E7] see you [Am] again
|I'll be [F] loving you, [G] Love, [C] me'"
[Am] [Dm] [G] [C][F][C]
[C] I read those words just [Am] hours before
[F] My grandma passed [C] away
In the doorway of a [Am] church
Where me and [Dm] Grandpa stopped to [G] pray
[C] I know I'd never [Am] seen him cry
In [F] all my fifteen [C] years
But as he said these [Am] words to her
His [F] eyes filled [G] up with [C] tears [F] [C]
[Chorus]
Be-[F]tween now and [G] then, till I [E7] see you [Am] again
I'll be [F] loving you, [G] Love, [C] me'"
[Am] [Dm] [G] [C][F][C]
