Baby, I'm-a want you 
Bm7
Baby, I'm-a need you 
        Amaj7                     D
You the only one I care enough to hurt about 
Bm7
Maybe I'm-a crazy 
      D
But I just can't live without... 
      A
Your lovin' and affection 
Bm7
Givin' me direction 
        Amaj7                              D
Like a guiding light to help me through a darkest hour 
Bm7
Lately I'm a-prayin' 
             D                   A
That you'll always be a-stayin' beside me 

C#m7                                  Dmaj7
Used to be my life was just emotions passing by 
C#m                                    E   D
Feeling all the while and never really knowing why...

C#m7                                  E  D
Used to be my life was just emotions passing by 
C#m                     
Then you came along and made me laugh 
     E   D
And made me cry... 
A
You taught me why...

A
Baby, I'm-a want you 
Bm7
Baby, I'm-a need you
