For each of the chords, play the bass note of each for the first beat. For D and D7,
play the open D, not the open A

For the first phrase of the chorus and instrumental break, walk down the A string for
the bass notes (I use my pink finger). They are represented as D4, D2 and D0

 D                 A                 Bm         D7
I've  lived  a  life  full  of  sorrow

With  no  where  to  run  or  to  hide

Happiness  you'll  see  is  borrowed

All  I  want  is  you  by  my  side



D       D  D4 D2 D0        G
Gentle  river    take  me  away

To  the  time  of  happier  days

         D      D4          Bm           G
All  I  need  is  love  and  company

   D                 A                  Bm         D7

All  I  need  is  you  here  with  me...
