[Intro] GDsus4Em7Cadd9
G Give me your heart to hold the God-like truth, Dsus4 Give me one good soul I can tell it through Em7 Give me good reason to believe in you Cadd9 And give me strength if you have time
G Give me two hands that'll hold this up Dsus4 And don't you give me no more than just enough Em7 You gave a pair of brown eyes that can call a good bluff Cadd9 And somebody who thinks they shine
Dsus4Em7Cadd9Dsus4 But you, I just want you Em7Cadd9G I just want you
G I spend most of my life on a microphone Dsus4 Giving all that I’ve got until I head back home Em7 And when the lights go out, and I’m all alone, Cadd9 Got no reason to be crying
G But on a bad day I feel like a masochist Dsus4 Take it away from me, if it's for the best Em7 Somehow I ended up the head of this Cadd9 Freight train that isn't mine
Dsus4Em7Cadd9 But you, I just want you Dsus4Em7Cadd9 You, I just want you
G So take it all away Dsus4 If it isn't meant for me Em7 I don't want the easy way Cadd9 I just want you G They can give me everything Dsus4 But at the end of the day Em7 The only words I’ll say Cadd9 Is 'I just want you'
GDsus4Em7
Cadd9 I just want you
G It’s all so simple when I break it all down Dsus4 Two roads converged on a hallow ground Em7 It’s taken all my life to hear the sacred sound Cadd9 Of sweet simplicity G Saying 'give it all back, you don't mean a thing' Dsus4 You got a short-lived life and a song to sing Em7 And the only way up is believing Cadd9 In never looking down
G So take it all away Dsus4 If it isn't meant for me Em7 I don't want the easy way Cadd9 I just want you G They can give me everything Dsus4 But at the end of the day Em7 The only words I’ll say Cadd9 Is 'I just want you'
