Verse 1
                 D5
If I close my eyes
      A5             E5
I know you are near me
G5               D5
Always right there
    A5              E5
When I need you the most
G5            D5           A5               Em6\Em\Em6\E5
You are my shelter, my shoulder when I'm weary
               G5            E5              A5
But I'm the strongest man whenever you're close
           E5          A5                 G5     
With your loving, I'm something and you need to know

Chorus

G5               D5              G5
If I could just reach a little higher

Become a little wiser I have just you to thank.

I only see clearly when you guide me
   B5                   A5    D5
Succeed when you're beside me
G5             A5            B5
All I need is your helping hand
   G5           A5              D5     G5 D5
To be a little stronger than I am
 G5 D5       E5     G5
A little stronger...

Verse 2
G5      D5      A5            E5
Every step I take of this journey
G5        D5           A5          E5
I wanna share every moment with you
G5              D5           A5            Em6\Em\Em6\E5
To know at the end of each day you will hold me
         G5                 E5           A5
And even when it's hard to win I can't lose

Because of you this dream I'm living it's true.
