And now I know

I know I let you down,

but it’s not like that now;

and gath er my self to geth er, ’cause you (C)keep me from fall ing a part.

All my life,

I’ll be with you for ev er, to get you through the day

and (C)make ev ’ry thing o kay.

But now I see

(G5)You’re the one thing I got right, the (Em7)on ly one I let in side.

Now I can breathe,

’cause you’re here with me.

And if I let you down,

’Cause (D5)with out you, I can’t breathe.

I’m not gon na ev er ev er let you leave.

You’re all I’ve got, you’re all I want.

Oh, oh, whoa.

’Cause (D5)with out you, I don’t know what I’d do.

I could nev er ev er live a day with out you here

Do you see?

You’re all I need.

And oh,
