from Down To Earth
 
Capo 3
 
 
[Intro]
 
Em C Em C
 
 
[Verse]
 
        Em               D
All the nights that I've missed you,
        Em             C
All the nights without end,
        G               D
All the times that I've called you
         C        Em
When you needed a friend.
 
         Em              D
Now your eyes shine with beauty,
       Em          C
That I missed long ago,
         G          D
Yes, the truth is I love you,
        C       Em
I can't say any more.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      C               D               Em C Em  C
Cos I need you, yes I want you, yes I love you
 
 
[Verse]
 
     Em           D
As I look from my window
       Em                C
To the streets where you stand
     G              D
I am gazing through dark glass
         C            Em
We can't walk hand in hand.
 
            Em             D
Though your friends try to tell me
            Em             C
Though your friends you defend,
           G            D
They keep my heart from your heart,
         C          Em
We must meet in the end.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      C               D               Em C      Em C
Cos I need you, yes I want you, yes I love you, love you.

THE CHORDS ARE VERY GOOD

The Em Chord should be a C# , because that way the intervals are ni place.

All the nights that I've missed you All the nights without end All the times that I've called you Only needing a friend Now your eyes shine with beauty That I missed long ago Guess the truth is I love you I can't say any more 'Cause I need you Yes I want you Yes I love you As I look from my window To the streets where you stand I am gazing through dark glass We can't walk hand in hand Though your friends try to tell me Though your friends you defend They keep my heart from your heart We must be in the end 'Cause I love you Yes I need you Yes I love you All the nights that I've missed you All the nights without end All the times that I've called you Only needing a friend Now your eyes shine with beauty That I missed long ago Guess the truth is I love you I can't say any more 'Cause I need you Yes I want you Yes I love you
