Solid Chords by Ashford & Simpson

_ And for love's sake, each mistake, _ all you forgave
And soon both of us learned to _ trust, not run away
There was no time to play, we build it up, build it up, build it up
And now it's solid, _ [Ab] _ _ [D] _
solid as a rock
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb]
[Cm] That's [D] what [Eb] this love _ [Gm] [F] is _
[G] That's what [Em] we've got
_ [Eb] _ _
[F] _ [C] Solid, _ _ _ _ _ [G] solid [D] as a rock
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
[Cm] _ [Dm] [Eb] Let's change _ [F] this
[Em] Let's build this new house
_ _ [Eb] _ _
[F] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ Oh, _ you didn't turn away when the sky went gray
[Bb] Somehow we managed, we had to [F] stick to [Eb] what we're
[F] _ You [Eb] _ [F] _
_ _ [G] didn't bat an eye when I made you cry
[Bb] We knew down the line _ we would [F] make it [Bb] right
_ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Dm] _ [F] And for [G] love's sake, [Eb] each [Dm] mistake, [Eb] _ all you [Am] _
[D] forgave
And [F] soon both [G] of us [Eb] learned to [Dm] [Cm] trust, not run away
[Bb] _
There was no time to [G] play, we [Am] build it up, [Em] build it up, [G] build it up
And [C] now it's solid, _ _ _ _ solid [D] as a rock

[F] The [G] thrill is [Em] still
_ _ [Eb] Gone _
_ [F] _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ with the wind _
Another friend [Bb] got in between
Tried to [F] separate [Eb] us
[Dm] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[F] We [G] knocked like old woods, you understood
_ [Bb] Love was so new, we did what [F] we had [Eb] to
_ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[F] And with that [G] feeling, [Eb] we were _ willing
[Cm] _ To take [Am] a _
[D] chance, [F] show against [G] all odds
[Eb] We [Gm] made a [Dm] start, [Cm] _ got [Bb] serious
That's what time's for [G] us
We [F] build it up, build [G] it _ up
And [C] now it's solid, _ _ _ _ solid [D] as a rock
_ [Eb] _ _ _
[Cm] _ [Dm] [Eb] That's what this love _ [F] is _
[G] That's [C] what we've got
[Eb] _ _
_ [A] _ [C] Solid, _ _ _ solid [D] as a rock
_ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _

[G] The thrill is [Em] still
