[Verse 1]
G
Fishing lure moon on a string for you

Am
Didn't you say you need space?

Bm                    E7                  Am
One of us just has to change, you say the same

                     D
So I guess we're okay
[Verse 2]
G
Twist my umbrella 'til it's inside out

Am
Hand you a bouquet of rain

        Bm                      E7
Saying "Oh, baby, please take a drink"

               Am7                         D
Did I shout or think I could save you this way?
[Chorus 1]
         C
Then you looked in my eyes and said

 D                         Bm
"How dare you love me when you should despise me?

    Em*
You should be scared of me"

   Am                        D
It seems that that's what it means

              G
When somebody needs you

[Verse 3]
      G
We'll meet in the middle like pistols at dawn

Am
Turn our backs, who's counting pace?

Bm                           E7
When the smoke clears are we friends

              Am
Or strangers again?

                D
Just a familiar face
[Verse 4]
      G
Well, aren't we "us?" sharing pronouns now?

   Am
So how could we separately heal?

Bm           Bm N.C.
God, I don't get it

  E7           E7 N.C.
I really don't get it

      Am                     D
Could someone tell me how to feel?
[Chorus 2]
              C                            D
So watch your step or you'll trip and fall right out of love be

    Bm                              Em*
The first one to turn 'round, say, "alright, who shoved me?"

   Am                        D
It seems that that's what it means

              G
When somebody needs you

  G           D      G                   D      G

[Bridge]
      Em
So we come and we go

Em
We know and are known

        Am
There's too many people to trust

      Bm                     E7                       Am
Well, it seems to me what we want and we need are the same

                          B
And that's someone who'll worry about us

     Am
'Til death do us part

            B
Please keep breaking my heart

        Em
'Til it ceases to beat

          C
Please be mine

                                  B
Well it seems that that's what it means

     B
When somebody-
Em Bm
G A  Am   D
Ohh! Ohh! Whoah!
[Chorus 3]
      C
So if love conquers all

         D
Then all else must have failed

        Bm
I mean, who wants to fall

         Em
Can't we just take the stairs?

        Am                        D
Well it seems that that's what it means

              G
When somebody needs you

    Am                       D
It seems that that's what it means

              G
When somebody needs you
