Intro: D G  Am  Bm E7 Am D

Verse 1:
G
Fishing lure moon on a string for you
Am
Didn't you say you need space?
Bm                    E7                  Am
One of us just has to change, you say the same
                     D
So I guess we're okay

Verse 2:
G
Twist my umbrella 'til it's inside out
Am
Hand you a bouquet of rain
        Bm                      E7
Saying "Oh, baby, please take a drink"
               Am7                         D
Did I shout or think I could save you this way?

Chorus 1:
         C
Then you looked in my eyes and said
 D                         Bm
"How dare you love me when you should despise me?
    Em
You should be scared of me"
   Am                        D
It seems that that's what it means
              G
When somebody needs you

Interlude: D G D

Verse 3:
      G
We'll meet in the middle like pistols at dawn
Am
Turn our backs, who's counting pace?
Bm                           E7
When the smoke clears are we friends
              Am
Or strangers again?
                D
Just a familiar face

Verse 4:
      G
Well, aren't we "us?" sharing pronouns now?
   Am
So how could we separately heal?
Bm
God, I don't get it
  E7
I really don't get it
      Am                     D
Could someone tell me how to feel?

Chorus 2:
              C                            D
So watch your step or you'll trip and fall right out of love be
    Bm                              Em
The first one to turn 'round, say, "alright, who shoved me?"
   Am                        D
It seems that that's what it means
              G
When somebody needs you

Bridge:
   B  Em
So we come and we go
Em
We know and are known
E       Am
There's too many people to trust
      Bm                     E7                       Am
Well, it seems to me what we want and we need are the same
                          B
And that's someone who'll worry about us
     Am
'Til death do us part
            B
Please keep breaking my heart
        Em
'Til it ceases to beat
          C
Please be mine
                                  B
Well it seems that that's what it means
     B
When somebody-

Em Bm

G A  Am   D
Ohh! Ohh! Whoah!

Chorus 3:
      C
So if love conquers all
         D
Then all else must have failed
        Bm
I mean, who wants to fall
         Em
Can't we just take the stairs?
        Am                        D
Well it seems that that's what it means
              G
When somebody needs you
    Am                       D
It seems that that's what it means
              G
When somebody needs you
