A#         F        Gm
Everybody needs someone to talk to sometimes
A#                     F         Gm
You're always pushin' down your problems,
                D#
pretendin' it's alright
A#          F         Gm
Secretly we all feel lonely, but don't worry
 D#
'cause
A#               F               Gm
You never know what's 'round the corner

        D#             Gm         F
On the days you don't feel that strong
          D#      Gm      F
Know it's okay to feel alone

Chorus:
       A#                       F    Gm
'Cause everybody needs somebody, somebody
                 D#
to tell 'em it's alright
    A#                       F    Gm
And everybody needs somebody, somebody
                 D#
to be right by their side
A#                    F
Wouldn't it be amazing
Gm                           D#
to find someone you're safe with?
   A#                      F        Gm
So do you wanna be somebody, my somebody?
              D#
Do you wanna be mine?

A#          F   Gm       D#
Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, somebody
A#          F   Gm       D#
Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, somebody

You put it all on yourself, just
know that there's no shame in
Askin' for a little help, 'cause
I can share the weight
You know we can just lay here,
talk about shit for ages
Just you and me and no one else

On the days you don't feel that strong
Know it's okay to feel alone

Chorus

Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, somebody
Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, do you wanna be my

Somebody that I care about?
Somebody that I swear by?
Our bodies will never feel alone

Chorus:
'Cause everybody needs somebody,
somebody to tell 'em it's alright
And everybody needs somebody,
somebody to be right by their side
Wouldn't it be amazing to find
someone you're safe with?
So do you wanna be somebody,
my somebody? Do you wanna be mine? Yeah

Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, my somebody
Oh-ah-oh-oh-oh, ohh, somebody
