Verse 1:

Abm7 Gb/Bb Db

Now if you feel that you can't go on

Abm7 Gb/Bb Db

Because all your hope is gone

Abm7 Gb/Bb Db

And your life is filled with much confusion

Abm7 Gb/Bb Db

Until happiness is just an illusion

Abm7 Gb/Bb Db

And your world around you is tumbling down, darling

Gb/Bb Gb

(Reach out) Come on, girl, reach out for me

Bb/D Fdim [N.C.]

(Reach out) Reach out for me

[spoken: Hah!]

Chorus 1:

Bb Eb/Bb Ebm Bb

I'll be there with a love that will shelter you

Bb Eb/Bb Ebm Bb

I'll be there with a love that will see you through

Verse 2:

When you feel alone and about to give up

'Cause your best just ain't good enough

And you feel the world has grown cold

And you're drifting out all on your own

And you need a hand to hold, darling

(Reach out) Come on, girl, reach out for me

(Reach out) Reach out for me

[spoken: Hah!]

Chorus 2 (double-length):

I'll be there to love and comfort you

And I'll be there to cherish and care for you

(I'll be there to love and see you through)

(I'll be there to love and comfort you)

Verse 3:

I can tell the way you hang your head

You're without love now, now you're afraid

And through your tears you look around

But there's no peace of mind to be found - I know what you're thinking

You're alone now, no love of your own, but darling

(Reach out) Come on, girl, reach out for me

(Reach out)

[spoken: Just look over your shoulder!]

Chorus 3:

I'll be there to give you all the love you need

I'll be there, you can always depend on me

Coda:

Bb Eb/Bb

I'll be there, don't worry [fade]
