D(add9)                      Gmaj9 
Knowing the way the wind was gonna blow 
D(add9)                      Gmaj9 
That was the way that I?d be going 
Gmaj9   Bmaj7 
Too a - fraid to stand alone 
Em7 
Too unsure to ever make my mind up 
Em7                               G/A 
Following the crowd was where I?d wind up 
 
Just like the tide keeps changing with the moon 
Day after day I changed direction 
Trying hard to find myself 
Wond?ring where my hopes and dreams had gone to 
There I was with nothing to hold on to 
 
Chorus: 
 
Bb/C 
Oh but 
F      Em7/5-                 Dm7 
Then I took my strength from you 
Cm7 Cm7/F Bmaj7 Am7   Dm(add9) Dm   Bb/C 
I   had   none, I had none 
    F      Em7/5-	      Dm7 
And then I took my faith from you 
Cm7 Cm7/F Bmaj7 Am7   Dm(add9) 
I   had   none, I had none 
Bbmaj7 
Until I met you 
Bbmaj7                          D 
Just when I needed your love, I met you 
 
(instrumental) 
Gmaj9  Bmaj7 
Trying hard to find myself 
Em7 
Wond?ring where my hopes and dreams had gone to 
Em7				 G/A 
There I was with nothing to hold on to
