Everything I Own ~ David Gates / Bread
                         
    You sheltered me from harm, 
                          
    kept me warm, kept me warm.
                         /AD
    You gave my life to me,
                           
    set me free, set me free.
                            
    The finest years I ever knew
                                
    were all the years I had with you.
CHORUS
                                
        And I would give anything I own,
                                  
        Give up my life, my heart, my home.
                               
        I would give everything I own
                              
        just to have you back again.

                                    /
You taught me how to love, what it's of, what it's of
                                        
You never said too much but still you showed the way
                          
and I knew, from watching you
                   /                         
Nobody else could ever know the part of me that can't let go

(repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
                                    
    Is there someone you know, you're loving them so
                       
    but taking them all for granted?
                                     
    You may lose them one day, someone takes them away
                                             
    and they don't hear the words you long to say.

(repeat Chorus)
                       
just to touch you once again.
