Key: 'Em'
Intro:
Em D/F# Am
First part:
Em D/F#
Want is the cigarette smoke on a jacket
Am
You wore to the wrong part of town
Em D/F#
Desire is the sound of the whiskey
Am
Telling me you miss me, can you come around?
Pré-Chorus:
Em D/F#
Passion is a passing thing
C C D/F#
It's accidental chemistry
Em D/F#
Lust is a liar
a short-lived fire
C
It ain't what you and I are at all
Chorus:
G D/F# C
Oh, it's a need, it's a need
G D/F# C
I would go anywhere that you lead
G D/F#
I am hopeless, breathless, burning slow
C G
Touch me, hold me, tell me, "I won't let you go"
D/F# C
I won't leave, it's a need
Second part:
Em D/F#
Danger is a thousand prickles on my neck
Am
That tell me to run or to freeze
Em D/F# Am
Fear is the nightmare I had, you were with someone else
You forgot about me
Pré-Chorus:
Em D/F#
Passion is a passing thing
C C D/F#
It's accidental chemistry
Em D/F#
Caught up in a feeling
it can be deceiving
C
This is like breathing for me
Chorus:
G D/F# C
Oh, it's a need, it's a need
G D/F# C
I would go anywhere that you lead
G D/F#
I am hopeless, breathless, burning slow
C G
Touch me, hold me, tell me, "I won't let you go"
D/F# C
I won't leave, it's a need
Bridge:
Cm
Baby, it's always
G# Cm
A new kiss every time we do this
G#
The truth is
Cm G#
It's essential to me
Cm
That you love me more than
G#
Wishing, longing
Chorus:
G D/F# C
Oh, it's a need, it's a need
G D/F# C
I would go anywhere that you lead
G D/F#
I am hopeless, breathless, burning slow
C G
Touch me, hold me, tell me, "I won't let you go"

I won't leave, it's a need
