Intro
A E F#m D E
Verse 1:
A E
I was lost and alone
F#m
Trying to grow
D E
Making my way down that long winding road
A E
Had no reason or rhyme
F#m
Like a song out of time
D E
And there you were standing in front of my eyes
A E
How could I be such a fool?
F#m
To let go of love
D E
And break all the rules
A E
Girl, when you walked out that door
F#m
Left a hole in my heart
D E
And now I know for sure
Chorus:
A E
You're the air that I breathe
F#m
Girl, you're all that I need
D E
And I wanna thank you lady
A E
You're the words that I read
F#m
You're the light that I see
D E
And your love is all that I need
Verse 2:
I was searching the vain
Playing a game
Had no one else but myself left to blame
You came into my world
No diamonds, no pearls
Could ever replace what you gave to me girl
Just like a castle of sand
Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands
And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side
Through the joy and the pain
(Repeat Chorus)
