I Need You  

Jars of clay


Intro: E - EM7 - E - EM7 - *C#m7  

E                *C#m7      
Strangely out of place
E                             *C#m7
There is a light filling this room where
                       A
None would follow before

                            E
I can't deny it burns me up inside
                                  A
I fan the flames to melt away my pride

Do I want shelter from the rain
      E
Or the rain to wash me away


Chorus:
B                         F#m
I need You, I need You, I need You,
B                         C#m
I need You, I need You, I need You,
A                     E
You're all I'm living for

*Repeat Intro

E                    *C#m7
I might sound like a fool
E                     *C#m7
But I think I felt You moving closer to me  

A                                    E
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
                                       A
I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up

You are the shelter from the rain
        E  
And the rain to wash me away


2nd Chorus:
B                         F#m
I need You, I need You, I need You
B                         F#m
I need You, I need You, I need You (You're all I'm living for)
B                         C#m7
I need You, I need You, I need You
   A                  B     
You're all I'm living for  (all I'm living for)
                      C#m     
All I'm living for  (all I'm living for)
   A                  E                   
You're all I'm living for


A                                    E
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut  
                                   
I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up   
A                            E
I can't deny it burns me up inside
                                 A
I fan the flames to melt away my pride

Only have a second to spare
        E                                    A
All the time in the world to know You're there

You are the shelter from the rain
        E
And the rain to wash me away


Repeat 2nd Chorus:

*Additional Notes:
The intro and verses have identical riffs I just didn't added it.
I suggest using the chords illustrated above, although regular chords
will also work.

If using 2 guitars - use capo on the 4th fret of the first guitar and
use the open C and CM7 chords (chord naming relative to capo). That
will make it more acurate.
