Intro:  G   D  Bm   A

Verse 1:
G            D
I've been a walking heartache,
Bm           A
I've made a mess of me.
G            D
The person that I've been lately
Bm           A
Ain't who I wanna be.
G            D
You stay here right beside me,
Bm           A
Watch as the storm blows through,
Em              G     A
And I need you.

Chorus:
G                       D               Bm   A
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
G                       D               Bm   A
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
           G                 D
For when I think I've lost my way,
             Bm                A
There are no words here left to say.
     Em    G
It's true:
    A
God gave me you.

Verse 2:
G                     D
There's more here than what were seeing,
Bm      A
A divine conspiracy,
G            D
That you, an angel lovely
Bm           A
Could somehow fall for me.
G                D
You'll always be love's great martyr,
Bm         A
I'll be the flattered fool.
Em             G     A
And I need you.

Bridge:
Bm                 G
On my own I'm only
                         D
Half of what I could be--I
                 A    Bm
Can't do without you.
                           G
We are stitched together,
                            D
And what love has tethered--I
                A
Pray we never undo.

There are no words here left to say.
