[E]Thought I could
But I just can't wait
[C#m]Started planning for my great escape
[A]Where I'd live and
[B]What I'd leave behind.
Made a list of things I'd have to take
Things that make me feel like hell for heaven's sake
Who I'd love and
Who would toe the line.
And I n[E]eed you[A]
Everybody n[C#m]eeds someone like you[B]
If you n[E]eed me t[A]oo
You would b[C#m]e the only t[/Ab]hing that I'd [A]take
On my great es[E]cape.
Float through this time like a cosmonaut
Reminding me of all the things I haven't got
Like time and space
A smile on my face
And you
And I need you
Everybody needs someone like you
If you need me too
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me...
[F#m]Maybe I f[Abm]ind that my d[A]estination
Is so[F#m]mewhere I a[Abm]lready k[A]now
[F#m]You were as f[Abm]ar as I e[C#m]ver h[B]ad to g[A]o[B]
And I need you
(thought I could, but I just can't wait)
Everybody needs someone like you
(started planning for my great escape)
If you need me too
(Who I'd love and)
You would be the only thing that I'd take with me
(what I'd leave behind,
what I'd leave behind)
I need you
Everybody needs someone like you
If you need me too
You would be the only thing that I'd take
On my great escape
On my great escape
On my great escape
There you go.
