[Verse 1]
A             C
    I used to trust nobody,

D            F    C          A     C     D    F C
    Trusting even less their words,

A           C
    Until I found somebody,

D              F      C       A     C    D    F C
    There was no one I pre - fered,

A                C
    My heart was made of stone,

D               F    C     A     C     D     F C
    My eyes saw only misty grey,

A             C            D
    Until you came into my life, girl,

      F       C        A     C     D     F C
I saw every - one that way
[Pre - Chorus]
Em          D/F#            C/G          F/A
    Until I found the one I needed at my side,

Em            B               Em             F    B
    I think I would've been a sad man all my life---!
