A                 A7M       Em7
We used to laugh, we used to cry
           Dm7     G7         C
We used to bow our heads then, wonder why
    A                           A7M        Em7
But now you're gone, I guess I'll carry on
             Dm7     G7      C
And make the best of what you left to me
F7M       D7
Left to me, left to me

  G                 Em
I need you like the flower needs the rain
           Bm                   G7
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
           C7M       Am
You know I need you, I need you
  G                 Em
I need you like the winter needs the spring
           Bm                   G7
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
           C7M       Am          G
You know I need you, I need you, I need you

    A                       A7M         Em7
And ev'ry day I'd laugh the hours away
             Dm7      G7       C
Just knowing you were thinking of me
    A                      A7M          Em7
And then it came that I was put to blame
          Dm7   G7       C
For ev'ry story told about me
F7M          D7
Bout me, about me

  G                 Em
I need you like the flower needs the rain
           Bm                   G7
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
           C7M       Am
You know I need you, I need you
  G                 Em
I need you like the winter needs the spring
           Bm                   G7
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
           C7M       Am          G
You know I need you, I need you, I need you

G              C                 G   G9  G  G
You don't realize how much I need you
G                C              G   G7  G  G
Love you all the time and never leave you
            Em      Bm      Em            Am
Please come back to me, I'm lonely as can be
G7
I need you

G              C               G   G9  G  G
Said you had a thing or two to tell me
G            C                G   G7  G  G
How was I to know you would upset me
  Em        Bm      Em                Am
I didn't realize as I looked in your eyes
G   G9  G  G
You told me

[Ponte]

G           C           D                      G

That's when it hurt me and feeling like this I just don't go on anymore

G               C            G   G9  G  G
Please remember how I feel about you
G             C             G   G7  G  G
I could never really live without you
    Em               Bm        Em               Am

  C7M        Am         G9  G  G
