G G A A
[Verse 1]
D A Bm G A
I'm independent to a fault, I know this well
D A Bm G A
But I finally found love without losing myself
G D A
I'm so much happier sharing my life
G D A
All of the good things and bad things alike
D A Bm G D
I'm not afraid of the truth, I'm not me without you
[Chorus]
D G A D
Because of you, I'm me
G D A
All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't
G A Bm
Because of you, I see
G D A
Everything I can be, lonely is history
G D
I know that I'm better when we're together
A G D
Because of you, I'm me
[Verse 2]
D A Bm
Well, there's nothing wrong with the world
G A
Oh, when you smile
D A Bm
The most beautiful sound I ever heard
G A
Is you breathing at night
G D A
When you're asleep and don't know I can hear
G D A
Sounds like an angel whispering in my ear
D A Bm
I don't know what I would do
G D
If it wasn't for you
[Chorus]
D G A D
Because of you, I'm me
G D A
All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't
G A Bm
Because of you, I see
G D A
Everything I can be, lonely is history
G D
I know that I'm better when we're together
A G D
Because of you, I'm me
A G D
Oh, Because of you, I'm me
[Bridge]
Bm F#m G A D
I don't need you the way a child needs a home
Bm F#m G
It's more like I'm free to admit
G
I'm not too proud to say out loud
G A
I am who I am 'cause you're part of me now
[Chorus]
G A D
Because of you, I'm me
G D A
All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't
G A Bm
Because of you, I see
G D A
Everything I can be, lonely is history
G D
I know that I'm better when we're together
A G D
Because of you, I'm me
A G
Oh, Because of you,
D
I'm me
