I Need You
Jars of clay
Intro: E - EM7 - E - EM7 - *C#m7
*C#m7
Strangely out of place
*C#m7
There is a light filling this room where
None would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me away
Chorus:
I need You, I need You, I need You,
I need You, I need You, I need You,
You're all I'm living for
*Repeat Intro
*C#m7
I might sound like a fool
*C#m7
But I think I felt You moving closer to me
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up
You are the shelter from the rain
And the rain to wash me away
2nd Chorus:
I need You, I need You, I need You
I need You, I need You, I need You (You're all I'm living for)
I need You, I need You, I need You
You're all I'm living for (all I'm living for)
All I'm living for (all I'm living for)
You're all I'm living for
Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut
I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt away my pride
Only have a second to spare
All the time in the world to know You're there
You are the shelter from the rain
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.
