You're standin' all alone,

Short of breath and tired eyes.

You're shakin' to the bone,
                                Fm
Overdressed and nowhere else to go.
                   Cm
Oh girl, I need to know


Let's get you from the cold,

I'll help you with your overcoat.

I'll never let you go,
                                  Fm
I need you more than I could ever show you.
                               Cm
Tell me now, because I need to know


[Chorus]

Cm        Eb             Ab
Everybody needs somebody sometimes. (sometimes)
Cm        Eb             Ab
Everybody needs somebody on their mind.
   Cm              Eb
So tell me what you want, girl;
Ab
I'll be there to hold you.
       Cm        Eb             Ab
'Cause everybody needs somebody, sometimes.


[Verse 2]

Cm
Who are you?

I never heard so many lies, so

Tell the truth;
                             Fm
The only thing I ever wanted for you,
                   Cm
Was to show you, I know you.


So now you see,

I've finally found a part of me

That you don't need.

But needing isn't everything when
Fm
You want love.

And you want ours,
    Cm
You need me.


[Chorus 2]

Cm        Eb             Ab
Everybody needs somebody sometimes. (sometimes)
Cm        Eb             Ab
Everybody needs somebody on their mind.
   Cm              Eb
So tell me what you want, girl;
Ab
I'll be there to hold you.
       Cm        Eb             Ab
'Cause everybody needs somebody, sometimes.


[Bridge]

Cm
So now you see,

I've finally found a part of me

That you don't need.

But needing isn't everything when

You want love.

And you want ours,

You need me.

You need me.
