           A   Bm
There's a light
                       D
A certain kind of light
                 A     G
That never shone on me
                   A             E
I want my life to be lived with you
            D
Lived with you

There's a way everybody say
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain't got you, ain't got you?
Hey babe

Chorus:
A                         E
You don't know what it's like, baby
D                         A
You don't know what it's like
             E
To love somebody
             D
To love somebody
           A
The way I love you

In my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind
And I'm blind, so so sorrily blind

I'm a man, can't you see
What I am
I live and I breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain't got you, ain't got? Hey babe

Chorus - x3
