[Capo 5; tune guitar to DADF#AD 
(open D).  I'm not 100% sure of the 
tuning,
 but I'm at least 90% sure.]
[D=000000; D(9)=002000; 
Dsus=000100; G(9)=020100;
 Em7(4)=220100; D/F#=400300; 
[It sounds like there's a Bm 
Gsus9=550300; Asus=x02300.]
chord in the guitar solo.  If so, 
play it
 like this: x20020.]

If you ever need to hear a voice 
Dsus                  Dsus
in the middle of the night
        D          D(9)        
when it seems so black outside 
Dsus    Dsus
that you can't remember
 G(9)        G(9)      G(9)      
light ever shone on you or the 
       G(9)      D     D(9)     
ones you love in this or another
Dsus   D
 lifetime

And the voice you need to hear is 
the true and the trusted kind, with 
a soft
familiar rhythm in these swirling, 
unsure times, when the waves are 
lapping in
and you're not sure you can swim, 
well here's the lifeline

If you ever need to feel a

hand take up your own
D/F#              D/F#            
When you least expect but want it

more than you've ever known

Baby, here's that hand, and

baby's here's my voice that's

If you ever need some proof that 
time can heal your wounds, just step
inside my heart and walk around 
these rooms; where the shadows used 
to be,
you can feel as well as see how 
peace can hover

Time's been here to fix what's 
broken with its power and the love 
that
smashed us both to bits spent its 
last few hours calling out your 
name,
and I thought, this is the kind of 
pain from which we don't recover

But I'm standing here now with my 
heart held out to you
You would have thought a miracle was
 all that got us through
Well baby, all I know, all I know is
 I'm still standing

And this is love, all that ever was 
and will be
This is love, standing up for you 
baby, standing up for me

G(9)     G(9)     G(9)          
  And I see you still and 
       G(9)
there's this catch in my
   Asus        Asus         Asus 
throat; And I just swallow hard 
         Asus
till it leaves me
G(9)      G(9)             G(9) 
  There's nothing in this world 
            G(9)
that can change what we know
Asus      Asus        Asus     
Still I know I am here if you 
Asus      G(9)  G(9)  G(9)  G(9)
ever need me
