(Original Key: Bb)


Chorus 1:

        G      A7          Cm   G
(You're all, I need to get by).

        G
(You're all,
         Like the sweet morning dew,
   A7
(I need,
    I took one look at you,
       Cm
To get by...)
        And it was plain to see,
G
 You were my destiny.

        G
(You're all,
         With my arms open wide,
   A7
(I need,
    I threw away my pride,
       Cm
To get by...)
        I'll sacrifice for you,
G
 Dedicate my life for you.

Verse 1:

G                                          C
 I will go where you lead, always there in time of need.
A7                       Cm
 And when I lose my will, you'll be there to push me up the hill.

        G              C
There's no, no looking back for us,
G                  A7              Cm
 We got love sure 'nough, that's e-nough.
       G                 Cm          G
You're all, you're all I need to get by.

Chorus 2:

        G      A7          Cm  G
(You're all, I need to get by).

        G
(You're all,
         Like an eagle protects his nest,
   A7
(I need,
    For you, I'll do my best.
       Cm
To get by...)
        Stand by you like a tree,
    G
And dare anybody to try and move me.

        G
(You're all,
         Darling in you I found,
   A7
(I need,
    Strength where I was torn down.
       Cm
To get by...)
        Don't know what's in store,
    G
But together we can open any door.

Verse 2:

G                                            C
 Just to do what's good for you, and inspire you a little higher.
  G                        A7                        Cm
I know you can make a man, out of a soul that didn't have a goal.

     G              Cm
'Cos we, we got the right foundation,
G                     A7    Cm             G
 And with love and de-termi-nation, you're all, you're all I:

C                  Cm
 Won't stop honey, do a little more y'all,
G                   C             Cm
 All, all the joys, under the sun; you are the one.

Bridge 1:

       G                 Cm
You're all, you're all I need...
       G                 Cm
You're all, you're all I need...
       G                 Cm          G
You're all, you're all I need to get by.
