Verse 1
GBm
Here's to the people who gave me life.
CG
And then showed me how to live it.
Bm
And taught me that you measure love,
CG
By how freely you can give it.
EmA
And the gift I give to you,
CG
Is the lesson that I learned.

That when a love is true,
CD
It asks nothing in return.
Chorus 1
GEmC
Unconditional love, that they gave to me,

it wasn't mine to keep and I knew someday;

I'd hand it down to you.

In hopes that I can be, the one who makes

unconditional love.
Verse 2
GBm
There were times I know I let them down

but never once was I rejected.

And when I stood alone to face this world,
CG
somehow I still felt protected.
Bridge
EmA
That's the common bond we share.
CG
And it will last through the years.
EmA
And you can trust that I'll be there.
CD
Through the good times and the tears.
Chorus 2
GEmC
Unconditional love, like they gave to me,
AmAm7G
it's not yours to keep and I know someday;

someone will look to you and you will have

to be, the one who makes them see the
D7CDGECAAG7
importance of, unconditional love.
