::Intro::
[E]c#m - B - A - E
c#m - B - A - E
::Verse #1::
Well I to[E]ok my car to find you
g#m
Drove down every lane
Loo[A]ked in all the backyards
f#m
Then I went back through again
[E]Then I took a Greyhound
g#m
Headed way out West
I f[A]ound some friends who knew you
f#m
But they told me you had already left
::Pre-Chorus::
Oh w[A]hy do [E]I need you s[A]o
[(A)]Like a cop needs a cr[B]ime
::Chorus::
Well I?ve pra[E]cticed in the mirr[B]or
c#m F#
Saying things to make my mind go clear
P[A]rayed until my knees were black and blu[B]e
c#m B A F#
And if love is a cut well it?s one that never seems to shut
Co[A]mes up every morning like it?s n[B]ew
And I[A] stil[B]l want y[E]ou
::Verse#2::
[E]I remember when we travelled up
g#m
To see the Arctic sun
S[A]topped to buy you cigarettes
f#m
Came back and you were gone
[E]Then I had to follow
g#m
A trail of unpaid bills
You m[A]axed out all my credit cards
f#m
And took all of the money from my till
::Pre-Chorus::
Oh w[A]hy do I[E] need you s[A]o
[(A)]Like a drowning man needs a l[B]ine
::Chorus::
Well I?m b[E]urning with des[B]ire
c#m F#
Standing way too close to every fire
I k[A]now I?ll pay the price when it comes due[B]
c#m B A F#
And no matter how I try resolutions fall in record time
Th[A]oughts of your sweet smile coming thr[B]ough
And [A]I sti[B]ll want y[E]ou

Oh w[A]hy do I[E] need you s[A]o

::Verse #3::
Well there?s [E]grey skies behind me
g#m
Thunder up ahead
I?m [A]hooked on this sensation
f#m
And I?m easily misled
And i[E]f I ever find you
g#m
I hope I will someday
I wo[A]n?t waste time on clever lines
f#m
Just smile at you and then I?ll walk away
::Pre-Chorus::
