Back when I was just me
You were always there to help and support my dreams
And you've encouraged me to see
And want so much more out of life
And you said never mind your fears,
Cause soon they will pass in time
And I want to thank you [A7see cause
[Chorus]
All I am and [Bm]all [Em]that I will ever be
Is because of you [A7and [Bm]I am proud to [C7]say
That you [A7helped make me into [C7]what I am today
I applaud you [A7for [Dm7]being so patient with me
All I am and [Bm]all [Em]that I will ever be
Is because of you [A7and [Bm]I am proud to [C7]say
No one else could do what you [A7have done for [Dm7]me
You mean the world to [C7]me (yeah)
There were times when I was [Am7]so
Frustɾated with you
I felt I didn't want you [A7no more
But then I ɾealized
That without you [A7I would be [Am]so alone (yeah)
But I chose to [C7]deal with you,
Whether ɾight or wrong [Am]and [Bm]I'm so glad I did cause
[Chorus]
See you [A7cause and [Bm]changed my [A]life
You turned an empty heart to [C7]work of art
And open my [A]eyes to [C7]the world
I would have never known, for [Dm7]that I'm grateful
You are my [A]pride and [Bm]my [A]joy
The closest thing to [C7]me next to [C7]the God above
And will forever be [Am]my [A]first love
And I'm always gonna give my [A]all [Em]to [C7]you
