Standard (EADGBE)
Better build your house on a rock
Or watch it crumble and fail
Better build your love with hammer and nails
I see it in the darkness as if it was broad daylight
I feel it down inside my soul when I hold you tight
It takes much more than passion for love to prevail
Gotta raise it up with hammer and nails
Chorus
Hammer and nails we're gonna build this love
Faith and hope, flesh and blood
Lay that firm foundation down to the last detail
Gonna build our love with hammer and nails
You build one room for laughter, you build one room for tears
This ain't no game, no house of cards, Its gonna take us years
A vow thats's only spoken comes to no avail
Put'em in your hands, hammer and nails
Chorus
Chorus
Gonna build our love with hammer and nails
