                     "You're All I Need To Get By"
                  (Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson)

Verse 1:

	[background vocal continues through next four lines]

	         A         B7/A         Dm6/A         A
	(You're all      I need    to get by    ahhh-ahhh)

	          A                     B7/A
	[Marvin] Like sweet morning dew      I took one look at you
	Dm6/A                         A
	      And it was plain to see   you were my destiny
	         A                  B7/A
	[Tammi] With arms open wide      I threw away my pride
	Dm6/A                        A             Bm7    Bm7/E
	      I'll sacrifice for you   dedicate my life to you

	    A          /C#            /E               Bm      A
	[T] I will go where you lead, always there in time of need
	     B          /D#         Dm6/F                      /D
	[M] And when I lose my will you'll be there to push me up the hill

Chorus 1:

	             A/E              Bm
	[M+T] There's no, no looking back for us
	A/E                   B7            Dm6
	    We got love sure 'nough, that's enough
	       A/E               Dm6/F [N.C.]         A
	You're all, you're all I need          to get by

Verse 2:

	(You're all   I need   to get by   ahhh-ahhh)

	[M] Like an eagle protects his nest, for you I'll do my best
	Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me

	[T] Darling in you I found   strength where I was torn down
	Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door

	[T] Just to do what's good for you   and inspire you a little higher
	[M] I know you can   make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goal

Chorus 2:

	[M+T] Cause we, we got the right foundation
	And with love and determination
	      A/E                     Bm
	You're - all, you're all I   want to strive for and do a little more
	      A/E               Bm
	You're - all the joys   under the sun wrapped up into one
	       A/E              Dm6/F  [N.C.]
	You're all, you're all I need

	A/E         Dm6/F  [N.C.]
	You're all I need

	B7/F#   /B         Bm7/E  [N.C.]        A
	       You're all I need [M: oh] to get by
