Lyrics

I been look in’ for some one

be tween the fire and the flame.

We’re all look in’ for some thin’

to ease it ev the (Am)pain.

When Now who can you turn to

be when it’s all black and white

and the win ners are los ers?

You see worth fight ’ry (Am)night.

I (Am)need some bod y,

some bod y like (G)you.

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y.

(D)Hey, what a bout (G)you?

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

(G)you?

We all (Am)need some bod y.

A noth er night, a noth er les son learned;

it’s the dis tance that keeps us sane.

But when the si lence leads to sor row,

we do it all a gain, all

a gain.

I (Am)need some bod y,

some bod y like (G)you.

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y.

(D)Hey, what a bout (G)you?

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y, some bod y like (G)you.

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y.

(D)Hey, what a bout (G)you?

We all (Am)need some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y, some bod y like (G)you.

Ev ’ry bod y (Am)needs some bod y.

I (Am)need some bod y.

(D)Hey, what a bout (G)you?

We all (Am)need some bod y.
