    A - Dm - A - Dm     - A - C - G

 

    A  Dm                         A     Dm                                A

1.  I,    I was the lonely one, wondering what went wrong,

            E              D            C         G

    why love had gone and left me lonely.

   A  Dm                   A       Dm                                 A

    I,    I was so confused, feeling like I’d just been used,

                     E          D                C              G

    then you came to me and my loneliness left me.

 

    C                                   F

+      I used to think I was tied to a heartache,

Em                                               A                  A7

    that was the heartbreak, but now that I’ve found you.

 

Dm                            G         C                                 F

Even the nights are better, now that we’re here together,

Dm                            G                    A             - A7

even the nights are better, since I found you,        ohohoho.

Dm                           G                     C                                 F

Even the days are brighter, when someone you love’s beside you,

Dm                            G                    E

even the nights are better, since I found you.

 

       A   Dm                               A              Dm                              A                                            

2. You, you knew just what to do, ’cause you had been lonely, too,

                      E                D        C            G

    and you showed me how to ease the pain.

             A          Dm                                      A

    And you did more than mend a broken heart

                Dm                                   A

    ’cause now you’ve made a fire start,

          E             D                 C           G    

    and I, I can see that you feel the same way.

 

   C                                               F

+     I never dreamed there’d be someone to hold me,

Em                                    A               A7

    until you told me, and now  that I found you.
