 G                      Em             D             C7 
I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were  
G                                Em 
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs  
D               C7 
 and there you were 
     G           C7 
With sweet love and devotion  
    G                C7 
 deeply touching my emotion  
         G                  C7 
I want to stop and thank you baby 
  G                            C7 
I just want to stop and thank you baby

 G         
I close my eyes at night,  
 Em                      D                      C7                              
 wondering where would I be without you in my life  
 G                            Em                  
Everything I did was just a bore, 
 D                                          C7 
 everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before  
G                                      Em 
But you brightened up for me all of my days 
 G                                C7 
 With a love so sweet in so many ways  
G                              C7 
I want to stop and thank you baby  
G                             C7

You were better for me than I was for myself  
G                                     C7 
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else 
G                           C7 
I want to stop and thank you baby 
G                           C7
