E
Better build your house on a rock
A
Or watch it crumble and fail
EB7E
Better build your love with hammer and nails
EA
I see it in the darkness as if it was broad daylight
EB7
I feel it down inside my soul when I hold you tight
EA
It takes much more than passion for love to prevail
EB7E
Gotta raise it up with hammer and nails
Chorus:
ADE
Hammer and nails we're gonna build this love
AB7
Faith and hope, flesh and blood
EA
Lay that firm foundation down to the last detail
EB7E
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, It?s gonna take us years
A vow thats's only spoken comes to no avail
Put'em in your hands, hammer and nails
ChorusChorus
Gonna build our love with hammer and nails
