Am                           D  C         Am
Selling your soul isn't the right way of giving
Oh with you I could change
This misguided goal I've been living
Anything, anything, you might need or desire
Just call on me, because my heart's on fire

Chorus:
F     Am
And I need you
G       Am
Do you need me too?
       F               Am
Yes I need you, yes I need you

Many is the time I've cursed the Lord's creations
Ah but you touched my hand
I loved this new sensation
It was very strange, what a change
Of you I did not tire
So call on me, my heart's on fire

Chorus

F            Am
Yes I need you
(Oh I need you)
G            Am
And I need you
(Say you need me too)
F            Am
Yes I need you
(Oh I need)
G            Am
Say you need me too

Yes I need you
And I need you
Oh I need
Yes I need you
Oh I need
Say you need me too[x3]
Say, say baby
Say you need me too
Yes I need you
Oh I need you too
And I need you
