William Robinson nasceu em Detroit, Estados Unidos, no dia 19 de fevereiro de 1940.
Seu trabalho se expande por quatro décadas e abrange algumas das melhores canções do música soul.
Robinson formou os The Miracles em 1955 e com eles chamou a atenção de Berry Gordy Jr. (o todo-poderoso da Motown em 1957).
Em 1960, "Shop Around", composta por Robinson e Gordy foi o primeiro single a render um milhão de dólares à recém-nascida gravadora, que com isto decolou de vez.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

(Now you say):
Verse 1:
GBmEmC Every time you need some af-fection, GBmEmC The one you love goes in a-nother di-rection, GBmEmC And you just sit there in a daze, remi-niscing, GBmEmC When you know some other lips, he's been kissing.
Chorus 1:
GmBb Now when you need the love he's never shown you; CD Come round here, GmBb And when you need some loving arms to hold you; CD Come round here.
GBmEmC Now I may not be the one you want, GBmEmC Oh, but I know I'm the one you need. GBmEmC Said; I may not be the one you want, GBmEmC Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need.
Break:
BbF Your life stands still, the minute he goes, GmDG You count the hours, just hoping he shows, girl...
Verse 2:
GBmEmC Can't you see, while you're longing for his touch, GBmEmC That I'm the one who loves you so much. GBmEmC And while you're longing for his em-brace, GBmEmC You're all alone there, with tears on your face.
Chorus 2:
GmBb Now, when you feel the need to cry to someone; CD Cry to me, GmBb And when you feel the need to lean on someone; CD Lean on me.
GBmEmC Now I may not be the one you want, GBmEmC Oh, but I know I'm the one you need. GBmEmC Said; I may not be the one you want, GBmEmC Ooh, but I know I'm the one you need.
GBmEmC Now the days the days you sit a-lone by your-self, GBmEmC He's out fooling 'round with somebody else. GBmEmC Leaving you a-lone here, with nothing to do, GBmEmC Just waiting 'till he has time for you.
Chorus 3:
GBm Now when the loneliness gets hard to bear, girl; EmC Come round here, GBm And when you need a little tender loving care, girl; EmC Come round here.
GBmEmC Now I may not be the one you want, GBmEmC Oh, but I know I'm the one you need...
