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.
