  C                      Am             G7            F7
I needed the shelter, of someone's arms; and there you were.
  C                 Am                           G7             F7
I needed someone to understand my up's and downs; and there you were.

Bridge 1:

C                      F7
 With sweet love and devotion,
C                    F7
 Deeply touching my emotion.
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby,
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby.

 How sweet it is, to be loved by you.

Verse 2:

  C                Am
I close my eyes at night;
G7                                   F7
 And wonder what would I be, without you in my life?
  C                Am
Everything was just a bore
G7                                     F7
All the things I did since, I've done 'em before

Bridge 2:

C                       F7
 But you brightened up, all my days,
C               F7
 With a love so sweet, in so many ways.
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby,
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby.

 You were better to me, than I been for myself;

 For me, there's you, and nobody else.
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby,
  C                            F7
I want to stop, and thank you, baby.
