F C/G
Well I tried to write a special song,
F/A Bbm
A love song just for you,
F Gm A4 A
To explain the way you make me feel inside.
F C/G
Though the meaning may be simple,
F/A Bbm
And the words may not be new,
F Gm A4 A Dm Bb
I couldn't make it clearer if I tried.
C F
I need you,
C/E Dm Dm7/C
And I couldn't live a day without you.
Bb
I need you,
Gm C4 C
More than anyone could ever know.
F
I need you,
C/E Dm Dm7/C
And I wanna build my world around you.
Bb Gm F Eb C
I need you, I need you.
F C/G
Well I sing the words and realize,
F/A Bbm
It had all been said before.
F Gm A4 A
So I tried a different rhyme that meant the same.
F C/G
But it didn't have the feeling,
F/A Bbm
And the first one said much more.
F Gm A4 A Dm Bb
So I guess I'll have to say it once again.
C F
I need you,
C/E Dm Dm7/C
And I couldn't live a day without you.
Bb
I need you,
Gm C4 C
More than anyone could ever know.
F C/E
I couldn't live a day without you girl,
Dm Dm7/C
I need you and I wanna build my world around you.
Bb Gm F Eb C
Baby, I need you.

(Oh, I need you), baby.
Dm/C Bb
(Couldn't live a day without you, ooh.)
Gm C4
More than anyone could ever know.

I couldn't live a day without you girl,
Dm Dm/C
I need you and I wanna build my world around you.
