(G) C Am Dm G7 I cried a tear, you wiped it dry; Dm7 Dm7/G C I was confused, you cleared my mind; C C7 F I sold my soul, you bought it back for me, D Dm7 G And held me up and gave me dignity -- Dm7/G G G7 Somehow you needed me. You gave me strength to stand alone again, To face the world out on my own again; You put me high upon a pedestal -- So high that I could almost see eternity. Dm7 G7 C You needed me, you needed me. Refrain: Am Am+7 Am7 Am7/G And I can't believe it's you, I can't believe it's true: F G C C/B I needed you, and you were there. Am Am+7 And I'll never leave, why should I leave? Am7 Am7/G Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G Am7 G I'd be a fool 'cause I finally found someone who really cares You held my hand when it was cold; When I was lost you took me home. You gave me hope when I was at the end And turned my lies back into truth again -- You even called me "friend." You gave me strength to stand alone again, To face the world out on my own again; You put me high upon a pedestal -- So high that I could almost see eternity. You needed me, you needed me. Coda: Dm7 G Dm7 C You needed me, you needed me.
