[Verse]
     C            G
Now, you know me
          C              G
You know how proud I am
                     C             F
And what I've got to tell you now
       Em   Dm        G
Won't be easy to say

[Verse]
       C                 G
Before I left your side
           C             G
Oh, I was so happy then
               C         F
But I've been so lonely
      Em       Dm   G
Since I went away

[Chorus]
     Bb                       G
I've tried and I know I can't make it alone
      Bb                            G
Such a hard way to go, I just can't make it alone
       Dm         Em    F     G
There's something in my soul
          C      F       Em      Bb  Dm  C  G
That will always lead me back to you___

[Verse]
            C          G
What should I say now
        C                     G
Sorry's just not good enough
                        C            F
I wouldn't blame you if you hurt me
      Em    Dm        G
Like I hurt you then

[Verse]
                 C          G
But who else can I turn to
         C                 G
Oh, babe, I'm begging you
                        C              F
Won't you reach out for my dying soul
         Em      Dm    G
And let me live again

[Chorus]
     Bb                       G
I've tried and I know I can't make it alone
      Bb                            G
Such a hard way to go, I just can't make it alone
       Dm         Em    F     G
There's something in my soul
          C      F       Em      Bb  Dm  C  G
That will always lead me back to you___

[Instrumental]
C   G   C   G   C   F  Em  Dm   C  G

[Chorus]
     Bb                       G
I've tried and I know I can't make it alone
      Bb                            G
Such a hard way to go, I just can't make it alone
       Dm         Em    F     G
There's something in my soul
          C      F       Em      Bb  Dm  C  G
That will always lead me back to you___

[Outro]
  C       G         C           G
Ohhh baby, you know I need you
                C       G
I'm saying that I need you
                          C     G
I just can't make it by myself
                          C     G
I just can't make it all alone
