 (Em)  (G)       (D#)
...And I need you
Em              G

(Chorus)
God gave me you for the ups and downs,
G                   D                 D#       A
God gave me you for the days of doubt,
G                   D                 D#       A
For when I think I've lost my way, there are no words here left to say it's true
           G                   D               D#          A                
........................God gave me you.....................Gave me you
Em (*1)                 G       A    |  G       D      D#     A   |   G      D       D#     A (*2)

(Verse 2)
There's more here than what we're seeing,
G                                    D
A divine conspiracy,
D#          A (*3)
That you, an angel lovely, could somehow fall for me,
G           D                   D#                      A (*4)
You'll always be love's great martyr,
G                          D
I'll be the flattered fool,
D#           A
And I need you.
Em (*5)         G

(Chorus)
God gave me you for the ups and downs,
G                   D                  D#       A
God gave me you for the days of doubt,
G                   D                  D#       A
For when I think I've lost my way, there are no words here left to say it's true
G                             D                   D#            A
........................God gave me you
Em  (*6)           G       A           D   


(Bridge)
On my own I'm only
D#
Half of what I could be
G
I can't do without you
D                     A (*7)
We are stitched together
D#
And what love has tethered
G
I pray we never undo
D                     A

(Chorus - Outro)
God gave me you for the ups and downs
G             D                      D#               A
God gave me you for the days of doubt
G             D                      D#               A (*8)
God gave me you for the ups and downs
G             D                      D#               A
God gave me you for the days of doubt
G             D                      D#               A
For when I think I've lost my way
           G                  D
There are no words here left to say, it's true
             D#                A                Em  (*9)
God gave me you.................................Gave me you
G      A    |     G         D          D#      A    |               G          D          D#     A
Gave me you
G        D        D#        A  |  G         D        D#        A
