        E
when I see myself
I'm seeing you too
    B
as long as I remember
and I'm feeling like I knew
          E
that my jokes aren't funny
the truth isn't true
          B       F#  
if there was no you

    E
if you were my boat in the deep blue sea
    B
I probably sink you down
    E
I know I should have thanked you for carrying me
         B                    F#
but for you I would happily drown

Chorus:
B               F#              E                 B
All along your way the darkest night the longest day
E               B7              F#
I know what to say to make you laugh
B                      F#
and nothing you could do
               E               B7
could make me turn my back on you
             E
when you're looking for a
 B7            F#
fight I'm your man
                 C#m
when you need a friend
            F#
you got my hand

What I really mean, what
I'm trying hard to say
Is that I'm counting on you and you got me too
Our secrets aren't safe,
I'm singing out of tune
If there was no you, if there was no you

Chorus

When you need a friend, you got my hand
You got my hand
