Tommy used to work on the docks

Gina works the diner all day
Em                                               Cadd9
Workin' for her man, she brings home her pay for love

She brings home her pay for love

                        C    D               Em

     C               D                          Em
It doesn't make a difference if we'll make it or not

We've got each other, and that's a lot

For love, we'll give it a shot

Whoah,   we're half way there

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
