Chords with lyrics
C majorC
E minorEm
You gave me all the love that's necessary
A minorAm
when two people try to find themselves,
E minorEm
love beyond all common sense
A minorAm
based on some sweet permanence
E minorEm
with only one
C majorC
and baby I thought I needed you
E minorEm
in a changing world
C majorC
baby I thought I needed you
C majorC
C majorC
Wanting some to give away,
E minorEm
important things I had to say
A minorAm
for many days,
E minorEm
suddenly you came along
A minorAm
helped me share my perfect song
in perfect ways,
C majorC
and baby I thought I needed you
E minorEm
in a changing world,
C majorC
I thought I needed you
C majorC
C majorC
The closer that we drew together
E minorEm
made our love seem like forever,
A minorAm
naturally,
E minorEm
and then I heard you sing the song
A minorAm
that I was singing all along
and failed to see,
DmDm
baby,
C majorC
the thing that I most fear
E minorEm
in a changing world:
G+G
I saw you disappear
C#C#
C majorC
C majorC
Empty now and silently
E minorEm
I face your struggle to be free
A minorAm
to be on your own,
E minorEm
to grow so very carefully
A minorAm
and suffer necessarily
for what I've done
C majorC
to baby who wants to know the thing
E minorEm
in a changing world
E minorEm
to baby who's learning how to sing
Repeat out-
