Verse 1:
             A augmentedA                     E minorEm
I don't have silver, I don’t have gold
      D MajorD
But everything I have, I offer you to hold
             A augmentedA
I am not the strongest
        E minorEm
Or the wisest man
           D MajorD
And yet I stand before you still

Do with me what you will
  B minorBm
I know it's taking time
      D MajorD
I can finally look you in the eyes and say that


Chorus:
A augmentedA
I am not an island
E MajorE
I am not a fortress
Bm7Bm7                       D MajorD
I am not an anchor in the seas
A augmentedA                                    E MajorE
I'm a man, out here in the darkness walking
      B minorBm                       E MajorE       D MajorD
And I need you out here walking beside me

Verse 2:
              A augmentedA             E minorEm
You showed me mercy, undeserved
           D MajorD
You have tended to our love, like a gardener with the earth
             A augmentedA                        E minorEm
You showed me patience and brought me ease
         D MajorD
You have opened up my eyes and taught me how to see
              Bm7Bm7
That I was a stubborn prideful man
        D MajorD
But you have made me understand that


Chorus:
A augmentedA
I am not an island
E MajorE
I am not a fortress
Bm7Bm7                       D MajorD
I am not an anchor in the seas
            A augmentedA                              E MajorE
I’m just a man, out here in the darkness walking
       Bm7Bm7                             D MajorD
And I need you out here walking beside me


Bridge:
     Bm7Bm7
And I know it won't be easy
     A augmentedA                        C# minorC#m
And I know that my jokes are cheesy
       D MajorD
But my love for you is real
              A augmentedA
And so much deeper than a feeling
      Bm7Bm7
And I'm ready for the road
       C# minorC#m              A augmentedA
I can take your heavy load
      D MajorD
Over mountains high and valleys deep
       A minorAm                A augmentedA
I can sing us both to sleep
    F# minorF#m     Bm7Bm7
But if I start to lose myself
        D MajorD
You can dance me back to health

And tell me


Chorus:
A augmentedA
I am not an island
E MajorE
I am not a fortress
Bm7Bm7          B minorBm             D MajorD
I am not an anchor in the seas
     A augmentedA                                  E MajorE
I'm a man, out here in the darkness walking
     Bm7Bm7                 B minorBm        D MajorD
And I need you out here walking beside me
