[Intro]
D G
[Verse 1]
G
Our little boy came up to his mama in the kitchen this evening while she was fixing supper
D
And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writing on
G
And after wiping her hands on her apron she read it and this is what it said
C
For mowing the yard 5 dollars, for making my own bed this week 1 dollar
D
For going to the store 50 cents, for playing with my little brother while you went shopping 25 cents
G C
For taking out the trash 1 dollar, for getting a good report card 5 dollars
G
And for raking the yard 2 dollars
D G
Total amount owed 14 dollars and 75 cents
G
Well as mama looked at him standing there expectantly
D
And I could see the memories flashing through her mind
And so she picked up the pen and turning the paper over
G
This is what she wrote and I read it to him
[Chorus]
C D
For the nine months she carried you growing inside her no charge
G
For the nights we sat up with you doctoring you praying for you no charge
C G D
For the time and the tears that you've cost through the years there's no charge
G
When you add it all up the full cost of our love is no charge
C D
For the nights filled with dread and the worries ahead no charge
G
For advice and for knowledge and the cost of your college no charge
C G D
For the toys food and clothes and for wiping your nose there's no charge
G
When you add it all up the full cost of our love is no charge
[Verse 2]
G
Well when I finished reading he had big tears in his eyes
D
And he looked up at his mother and he said mama I sure do love you
G
Then he took the pen and in great big letter he wrote Paid In Full
[Outro]
D G
When you add it all up the cost of real love is no charge
