Words & Music by Chris de Burgh
Intro: E - A - E - A
It's[C#m] all right I'm not l[G#m]ost,[A]
I've got a reading [E]on the Southern c[F#m]ross,
And I've been listening to the r[C#m]adio,
For signs[Bsus4]_____ of new__[B]__ life[G#],
[C#m]Some people find the [G#m]game too toug[A]h,
And there are those who've simply [E]had enoug[F#m]h,
But I'm still here and I'm not g[C#m]iving up,
I'm go[Bsus4]_____ing the di[B]stance;
Whate[A]ver it takes ... I h[B]ave to fight,
To build a better w[A]orld ... and make it r[B]ight,
And when I am al[A]one ... it's late at n[B]ight,
I re[A]ach out and you're right [B]here by my side[E];
When everything has gon[A]e,
You help me carry[G#m]___ on[A],
You l[E/B]ift me up, you make m[B]e strong,
You give l[E]ove to see me t[A]hrough,
[F#m7]Ooh ooh ooh what would I do[B],
Without y[A]ou b[B]y my sid[E]e [-]?[A][-][E][-][A]
And out here on the flight,
I'm on a wing and a prayer tonight,
The moon is showing me the way to go,
I'm flying forever.
I've got what it takes ... to win the fight,
And build a better world ... and make it right,
But when I am alone ... it's late at night,
I reach out and you're here by my side,
When everything has gone,
You help me carry on,
You lift me up, you make me strong,
You give love to see me through,
Ooh ooh ooh what would I do,
Without you by my side ?
[E]Always you're in my heart,
[A]Always by [D]my s[E]ide,
Always you're in my l[A]ife,
Always r[E/B]ight__[B]_ here, (an[E/B]d I l[B]ove___ you n[E]ow),
Always you're in my worl[F#m7]d,
Always I think what would I [B]do without you[A], (without you),
By my side[B],
(Always you're in my heart...And I need you now... )
By My Side ?
