Intro 
G  C  Dadd4  x4 



G                              C       Dadd4 
  Well, I had fallen down again, I had nowhere to go 
G                     C         Dadd4 
  You had bolted your doors and closed your window 
G                       C                     Dadd4 
  Still a crack in your wall that I could see through 
  G                              C                Dadd4 
I saw your house was empty and I rode out to meet you 



        G                C          Dadd4 
But the city was cold confusing and vast 
        G                    C       Dadd4 
And the light in my soul was fading fast 
G                                      C                Dadd4 
Slung towards the back streets and the alleys where the drunks fight 
  G                               C           Dadd4 
I walked on past the factories in ever-dying sunlight 



  G         C  Dadd4 
I needed you 
  G         C  Dadd4 
I needed you 
  G               C         Dadd4 
I needed you, but you never came for me 


Instrumental 
G  C  Dadd4    x2 



G                     C                  Dadd4 
  Many years now have passed, and you've not left my mind 
G                   C                Dadd4 
  And memories like photographs have faded in time 
G                   C             Dadd4 
  I walked past the cafes and the nightclubs 
  G                               C                 Dadd4 
I walked past the beggars and the ladies with their white gloves 



  G 
I know it won't be long now 
     C                Dadd4 
It's getting near the end 
   G                              C               Dadd4 
My ribs are poking through and my coat is getting thin 



         G   C  Dadd4 
I needed you 
               G   C  Dadd4 
Yeah, I needed you 
           G                   C         Dadd4 
You see, I needed you, oh, but you never came for me 


Instrumental 
G  C  Dadd4 



C                     D         G           C 
  So I walked back to where I'd once called home 
                   Em       D            G          C 
But the rooms were dark and bare and the garden overgrown 
                       D              G             C 
And the door was still locked and the windows still shut 
             Em    D 
And the wall was still cracked 
    G          C 
Why did I come back? 
                  D            G          C 
And the answer so thin left me hollow within 
             Em    D                G           C 
'Cos nothing had changed except the date and my age 
                      D      G          C 
And I still have this pain bloating my veins 
               Dadd4 
Thumping in my aching brain 


 

  G         C  Dadd4 
I needed you 
        G         C  Dadd4 
Yeah, I needed you 
           G               C         Dadd4 
You see, I needed you, but you never came for me 


Instrumental 
G  C  Dadd4 


Outro 
G              C              Dadd4 
  So I turned away from my madness 
G                       C                  Dadd4 
  Thought I saw a light flicker by the door 
G               C                 Dadd4                        G 
  I closed down both of my eyelids     and I thought no more
