Hop to Another SongFor all those Dbtimes you stood by me,
for all the Gbtruth that you made me see.
For all the Bbm7joy you brought to my life,
for all the Absuswrong that you made right.
For every Fm7dream you made come true,
for all the Gbmaj7love I found in you.
I’ll Ebm7/Abbe forever thankful baby,
B6you’re the one who Bbm7held me up,
Ebm7never let me fall.
Gbm7You’re the one who saw me through,
Ebm7/Abthrough it all.
You were my Dbstrength when I was weak,
you were my Gbvoice whеn I couldn’t speak,
you were my Bbm7еyes when I couldn’t see,
you saw the Absusbest there was in Abme.

I’m Ebm7/Abeverything I am
because you Dbloved me, ooh baby. Ebm7/Ab
You gave me Dbwings and made me fly,
