A Amaj7, Em7
We used to laugh, we used to cry,
Dm7 G7 C
we used to bow our heads then, wonder why.
AAmaj7 Em7
But now you're gone, I guess I'll carry on,
Dm7 G7 C
and make the best of what you left to me,
Fmaj7 D7
left to me, left to me.
GEm
I need you like the flower needs the rain,
Bm Am7 D7
you know I need you, guess I'll start it all again.
G Em
Youknow I need you lke the winter needs the spring,
Bm D E
you know I need you, I need you.
A Amaj7 Em7
And ev'ry day I'd laugh the hoursaway,
Dm7 G7 C
Just knowing you were thinking of me,
A Amaj7 Em7
And then it came that I was put to blame
Dm7 G7 C
forev'ry story told about me,
Fmaj7 D7
'bout me, about me.
G Em
I need you like the flower needs the rain,
Bm G7
you know I need you,...
