Intro:   C   Dm   Bb   F   G  
  
C                                   G       
I've gotten rid of my guilt and my lily white 
         Am                      F    
And I've gotten used to an empty bed, sometimes 
              C  
We used to be glowing 
                  G          
But I wouldn't be going now 
            C    
If I needed you 
            G    
If I needed you 
  
  
   C                      G     
Oh love, you know I could hold you long 
        Am                    F          
But the holding has turned to lean upon 
             C          
And I may be blowing it 
                  G  
But I wouldn't be growing now 
            C   G    
If I needed you 
  
  
     C         Dm   
I'll take this space in time 
F          G       C       
For what I need to say 
C                               
Some race within the limit 
Dm    
Winning 'cause their needs are in it 
Bb               F         G    
Mine have always got in my way 
          C                 G    
But, I'll sing along to the life and times 
        Am                             F             
Just go wandering alone and learn that I'm the guide 
                       C   
At least it keeps me believing 
                  G   
But I wouldn't be needing now 
            C    
If I needed you 
  
  
              G     
I wouldn't be bleeding now 
         C   
I may be blowing it 
                  G   
But I wouldn't be growing now 
           C   
I would be lying 
                  G  
But I wouldn't be crying now 
              C  
This might be living 
                  G 
But I wouldn't be dying now 
         Am       
I may be blowing it 
                  F    
But I wouldn't be growing now 
           C  
I would be lying 
                  G  
But I wouldn't be crying now 
            C   Dm   Bb   F   G    
If I needed you
