If not for [E]you,[B][A]
Babe, I couldn't [E]find the door,[B][A]
Couldn't even [E]see the floor,[B][A]
G#m' F#m'
I'd be sad and blue,
If not for [E]you.
If not for you,
Babe, I'd lay awake all night,
Wait for the mornin' light
To shine in through,
But it would not be new,
If not for you.

[A]If not for you
My [E]sky would fall,
[B]Rain would gather [E]too.[E7]
[A]Without your love I'd be [E]nowhere at all,
[F#]I'd be lost if not for [B]you,
A G#m' F#m'
And you know it's true.
B A G#m' F#m'
B A G#m' F#m'
B A G#m' F#m' E
If not for you
My sky would fall,
Rain would gather too.
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all,
Oh! what would I do
If not for you.

If not for you,
Winter would have no spring,
Couldn't hear the robin sing,
I just wouldn't have a clue,
Anyway it wouldn't ring true,
If not for you.

If not for you,
The night would see me wide awake
The day would surely have to break
But it would not be new,
If not for you.

[C]If not for you
My [G]sky would fall,
[D]Rain would gather [G]too.
[C]Without your love I'd be [G]nowhere at all,
I'd be [A7]lost if not for you.[D][Dadd9/C][G6/B][D/A]

If not for you,
Winter would hold no spring,
I couldn't hear the robin sing,
I just wouldn't have a clue,
If not for you.
