Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I remember waiting  by the curb  with Mr. Murphy
 When daddy picked  me up from school  his eyes were  red
 We drove  to the hospital  in a hurry
 Where my family  gathered ‘round  my grandpa’s  bed
 He was my  best friend
 He taught me how  to fish
 And I cried  listening  to my daddy  pray
 For one  of those I’ve loved  along the way
 **Don't feel like writing chords out again...same chords as first part of song
 She had a ribbon in her hair the day I met her
 That whole next year we couldn’t get enough
 After graduation she took off for Denver
 And for a while we both tried to keep in touch
 She was my best friend
 And it broke my heart
 But I don’t regret the day that she became
 One of those I’ve loved along the way
 And I hope  they know
I  never would’ve made it this far on  my own
Cause  where would we all be without those
Fathers  and mothers
Sisters  and brothers
Friends  I’ve made
Long  lost lovers
I  wouldn’t be who  I am today
If  not for those I’ve loved  along the way
 Now I’m just a country boy with a guitar
 Looking back down this old road I’ve been traveling on
 It was never about trying to be some big star
 For me it’s always been about these songs
 See they’re my best friends
 They’re the life I lead
 And I hope they’ve put a smile on the face
 Of those I’ve loved along the way
 Cause I wouldn’t be the man I am today
 If not for those I’ve loved along the way.

And I hope they’ve put a smile on the face
Of those I’ve loved along the way

Cause I wouldn’t be the man I am today
If not for those I’ve loved along the way.
