(verse 1)
D5                D5   
Promise or a dare,
B5                 A5 
I would jump if I knew you'd catch me, 
D5                    D5 
Staring over the edge,
B5                     A5           
I can't tell if you'll be here for me,
G5
I close my eyes and make a wish,
D5
Turn out the lights and take a breath,
C5
Pray that when the wick is burned,
G5
You would say that it's all about love,

(chorus)
D5                      C5     G5  
You were there when I needed you,
                                    D5           
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5    G5 
You were there when I needed you,  
                                     D5             
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open, 


                B5      A5
But you were never here,
D5                   D5
I remember you said,
B5                        A5    
Love was more then your good intentions, 
G5
Empty boxes on the floor, 
D5
Things I've never asked you for,
C5
Pray that when the wick is burned,
G5
You would say that it's all about love,

(chorus)
D5                      C5     G5  
You were there when I needed you,
                                    D5           
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5    G5 
You were there when I needed you,  
                                     D5             
You were there when the skies broke wide wide open,

(bridge)
C5 - G5   D5  E5 
Ohhh,   Ahhhh,  
        C5                G5  
And I can't see the promise, 
          D5             E5
of excuses you fall upon,
      C5                 G5    
So I pray to God not holding, 
          A5    
on to things you left undone,
Bb5   C5 - E5 - G5            
Yeahhhhhhhhhhh,
Bb5    C5 - D5 - C5 - G5 - D5 - D5       
Yeahhhhhhhhhh,

(chorus)
D5                       C5   G5
You were there when I needed you,
                                  D5   
You were there when the sky broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5   G5
You were there when I needed you,
                                  D5   
You were there when the sky broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5   G5
You were there when I needed you,
                                  D5   
You were there when the sky broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5   G5
You were there when I needed you,
                                  D5   
You were there when the sky broke wide wide open,
D5                       C5   G5
You were there when I needed you,
                                  D5   
You were there when the sky broke wide wide open
