[Verse 1]

            C
I needed it most, 
           E
When I was eighteen
                 Am 
But now that I'm older, 
                  D
I don't need many things
                C
Just someone to hold, 
                     E
That's what you give me
                       Am 
When dark touches your skull baby,
    D                          G 
oh, babe, you can drop that on me 


[Verse 2]


So I say Lord, 
                       Am Asus4 Am
All the heavens you've made, 
                    C
Can't hold back the ghosts 
     D                 G
That haunt my baby and me 

Oh can't ye hold 'em back, 
               Am Asus4 Am
From comin' on in, 
         C
To a lovely woman, 

That just wants
    D          G 
Her mind back again

[Verse 3]

C 
I will not crumble!
                      G
What you want this to be 
                  C
Or bring peace of mind, 
                     E
If it ain't there to see 
                      Am
Ah, if you don't know yourself, 
              D         G
How could you ever know me
                   Am 
But to have and to hold you,
                 D             
Yeah, that's the way its gotta be
