We [A]used to laugh

We [Amaj7]used to cry

[Em7] We used to bo[Dm7]w our heads, then

[C] wonder why

But [A]now you're gone

I guess I'll[Amaj7] carry on

[Em7] And make the bes[Dm7]t of what you [C]left to me

[Fmaj7]Left to me, [D7]left to me

{c: Chorus}

{soc}

I ne[G]ed you

Like the fl[Em]ower needs the rain

You know I ne[Bm]ed you

Guess I'll [Am7]start it all again[D7]

You know I ne[G]ed you

Like the wi[Em]nter needs the spring

You know I ne[Bm]ed you

I need you

{eoc}

{c:D E}

And [A]every day

I'd laugh the [Amaj7]hours away

[Em7] Just knowing you[Dm7] were thinking of [C]me

[A]Then it came

That I was[Amaj7] put to blame

[Em7] For every [Dm7]story told abou[C]t me

[Fmaj7]About me, abou[D7]t me

{c: Chorus + extra "I need you"'s}
