Sara performed this live April 22, 2012, at the Washington Pavilion in Sioux Falls, SD [Intro] C Gsus4 Am7 Fadd9
C
Give me your heart to hold the God-like truth,

            Gsus4           G
Give me one good soul I can tell it through

Am7
Give me good reason to believe in you

            Fadd9
And give me strength if you have time

C
Give me two hands that'll hold this up

              Gsus4                G
And don't you give me no more than just enough

            Am7
You gave a pair of brown eyes that can call a good bluff

     Fadd9
And somebody who thinks they shine

   Gsus4  G     Am7       Fadd9 Gsus4  G
But you,    I just want you

 Am7        Fadd9     C
I just want you

  C
I spend most of my life on a microphone

       Gsus4                     G
Giving all that I've got until I head back home

             Am7
And when the lights go out, and I'm all alone,

    Fadd9
Got no reason to be crying

         C
But on a bad day I feel like a masochist

        Gsus4                 G
Take it away from me, if it's for the best

 Am7
Somehow I ended up the head of this

   Fadd9
Freight train that isn't mine

    Gsus4 G     Am7        Fadd9
But you,    I just want you

Gsus4 G   Am7       Fadd9
You,   I just want you

          C
So take it all away

           Gsus4      G
If it isn't meant for me

             Am7
I don't want the easy way

  Fadd9
I just want you

             C
They can give me everything

          Gsus4        G
But at the end of the day

         Am7
The only words I'll say

      Fadd9
Is 'I just want you'
C Gsus4 G Am7
Fadd9
I just want you

   C
It's all so simple when I break it all down

   Gsus4                 G
Two roads converged on a hallowed ground

          Am7
It's taken all my life to hear the sacred sound

   Fadd9
Of sweet simplicity

       C
Saying 'give it all back, it don't mean a thing'

          Gsus4                  G
You got a short-lived life and a song to sing

      Am7
And the only way up is believing

    Fadd9
In never looking down

          C
So take it all away

           Gsus4      G
If it isn't meant for me

             Am7
I don't want the easy way

  Fadd9
I just want you

             C
They can give me everything

          Gsus4       G
But at the end of the day

         Am7
The only words I'll say

      Fadd9
Is 'I just want you'

C  Gsus4 G Am7
Oh,

Fadd9
I just want you

C  Gsus4 G Am7 Fadd9
Oh
