  			D                                          G            D 
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye, 
                                                     A 
fighting was against the rules, and it didn't matter why, 
G                   A               D             G 
when dad got home I told that story just like I rehearsed, 
     D 
then stood there on those trembling knees, 
    A              D 
and waited for the worse, 
 
 
 
         D                         G               D 
He said, let me tell you a secret about a father's love, 
                                             A 
a secret that my daddy said was just between us, 
        G                 A 
He said daddys don't just love their children 
D             G 
every now and then, 
       D            A     D 
It's a love without end, amen 
                    A     D 
it's a love without end, amen 
 
 
D                             G           D 
When I became a father in the spring of "81" 
 
there was no doubt that stubborn boy, 
                          A 
was just like my father's son, 
    G                 A                  D             G 
and when I thought my patience, had been tested to the end, 
  D                            A            D 
I took my daddy's secret,and I passed on to him, 
 
 
(chorus)......... 
 
        D 
I said, let.............

       D            A     D        B 
It's a love without end, Amen

Last night I dreamed I died and, 
         A                 E 
stood outside those pearly gates, 
                                              B 
and suddenly I realized, there must be some mistake, 
   A                      B 
if they'ed known half the things I done, 
        E            A 
they'ed never let me in, 
     E 
then somewhere from the other side, 
  B                 E 
I heard these words again, 
 
 
(chorus) 
 
           E                         A              E 
They said, let me tell you a secret about a fathers love 
                                             B 
a secret that my daddy said was just between us 
         A                  B                   E             A 
you see, daddy's just don't love their children every now and then 
       E            B     E 
it's a love without end, amen 
       E            B     E 
it's a love without end, amen
