verse 1 
C                   Dm 
It hasn’t rained, 6 months or more 
C             Dm 
Till today, a sudden pour 
C                   Dm           Am 
Now I can smell the petrichor outside 
C                        Dm 
The sighing ground gives up its love 
C                       Dm 
Unto the breeze and the trees above 
C                     Dm        Am 
Suddenly your phantom shoves my side 

Em F G 

G 
I don’t need you 
F                 Em F 
I don’t need you 
G 
I don’t need you 
F                 C      Dm 
But I sure I want you 

C     Dm    C    Dm   Am 

Verse 

C                 Dm 
I never loved you more than when 
C                   Dm 
I turned and walked into the wind 
C                    Dm                  Am 
And left you leaning on an old friend of mine 
C                 Dm 
I walked straight into my head 
C                   Dm 
The hardest thing I ever did 
C                 Dm       Am 
Seabirds wheeling overhead crying 

Em F G 

G 
I don’t need you 
F                 Em F 
I don’t need you 
G 
I don’t need you 
F                 C      Dm 
But I sure I want you 

Verse 
C                 Dm 
I wish I knew the names of things 
C                     Dm 
Of trees and flowers, birds that sing 
C                          Dm               Am 
You’re much better at that kinda thing than I 
C                      Dm  
And I don’t know these stars up here 
C                   Dm  
You’d fill me in if you were near 
C                        Dm         Am  
You taught me petrichor, our secret sign 

Em F G

I don’t need you 
G 
I don’t need you 
F                 C      Dm 
But I sure I want you

I sure I want you 
C          Dm 
I want you  
C 
Yes, I want you
