A Song For Amy
By Jack Ingram


G             G/F#        Am      
My words they may sound familiar
D             Cadd9            G
Like ones you may have heard before
G               G/F#        Am
When I tried to write you a love song
D              Cadd9            G
I simply could think of nothing more


Chorus 1:
D         Cadd9          G
Love you, want you and I need you
D           Cadd9          G
I'd love to have you by my side
D         Cadd9          G
Love you, want you and I need you
     D             Cadd9           G
Your love gives my soul a place to hide

I've thought of different ways to tell you
Words however come up short
Of the way I really feel about you
Of the way you're always on my mind

Chorus 2:
How can I say it any different
The words they all mean the same
Love you, Want you and need you
A rose is still a rose by another name

The words of those who've come before me
May have sparkled on the page and made you high
All I know is the thought of life without you
Is enough to make the strongest man cry

Chorus 3:
Amy when I speak to you please listen
Smile, laugh, or cry but don't walk away
Love you, want you, and I need you
Please tell me that you feel the same

Yeah, my words, they may sound familiar
Like the ones you may have heard before
Never were they said with such conviction
I know they will ring true forever more

Repeat Chorus 1
