[Verse 1]
    G             Em                       D
The houses caught fire, caught fire in the field
        G           Em                      D
And the light was astounding, astounding, I guess
  G          Em                       D
I spent many years, many years in the darkness
    G            Em               D
Oh, I'm tired of trying, I did my best

[Chorus]
   G        Em         C           G
We all need someone to love and to hold
   G        Bm         C                G
We all need shelter to keep us from the cold
   G        Bm            C         G
We all need laughter when life gets hard
   G        Bm         C                  G
We all need someone to love us for who we are, alright now

[Verse 2]
    G         Em                     D
The fireworks sang and danced in the night
     G         Em                       D
So I hid in my bed, so scared that I'll die
  G              Em                     D
I want the whole world, the world at my funeral
G            Em                      D
Watch as the rainbows explode in the sky

[Chorus]
   G        Em         C           G
We all need someone to love and to hold
   G        Bm         C                G
We all need shelter to keep us from the cold
   G        Bm            C         G
We all need laughter when life gets hard
   G        Bm         C                  G
We all need someone to love us for who we are, alright now

[Bridge]
C                G
 No regrets if we walk the same roads
  D                    D
We won't forget who we are
C               G
 No regret if we walk these new roads
  D                  D
We may forget who we are
C                G
 No regrets if we walk the same roads
  D                    D
We won't forget who we are

[Chorus]
   G        Em         C           G
We all need someone to love and to hold
   G        Bm         C                G
We all need shelter to keep us from the cold
   G        Bm            C         G
We all need laughter when life gets hard
   G        Bm         C                  G
We all need someone to love us for who we are

[Chorus]
   G        Em         C           G
We all need someone to love and to hold
   G        Bm         C                G
We all need shelter to keep us from the cold
   G        Bm            C         G
We all need laughter when life gets hard
   G        Bm         C                  G
We all need someone to love us for who we are
