Never Knew How Much I Needed You

D   G   D   G  Em  A

[Verse]
D             G                                      D       G
Time and time again I've felt these walls of plaster closing in
D                                 G
And more than once I've felt that lonely, lonely feeling
D                                G
Wondering why I ain't where I've been
D                   G
Just about the time I think I can't hold on
Em                  G                  A
You're always there to keep me hanging on

And I said

[Chorus]
D                       G
I never knew how much a man needed a woman
D                       G
I never knew how much a boy needed a girl
D                     G             Em  A
I never knew how much I needed you

[Verse]
D               G
Day after day I join the rat race
D                          G
Trying to make the most of it
D                 G
I keep on falling down down the ladder
D                        G
Trying to stay on top of it
D                    G
Just when I was sure nothing could get no better
Em
Oh I realized
A
I still love you more than ever

[Chorus]
D                           G
I never knew how much a man needed a woman
D                           G
I never knew how much a boy needed a girl
D                     G
I never knew how much I needed you

[Solo]
A   G   A   C A F   G A

[Verse]
D                 G
Today I watch the sun set on the freeway
D                    G
And strangled on the poison air
D                 G
But miles beyond, on the other end
D                       G
I know you'll always be waiting there
D                           G
Girl you treat me with your kindest hand
Em                  A
You're in my heart, in my mind
A
And I'm so glad

[Chorus]
D                       G
I never knew how much a man needed a woman
D                       G
I never knew how much a boy needed a girl
D                              G     Em  A  G  D
I never knew how much I needed you
