Verse 
G                          C 
If I needed you, would you come to me? 
          G                 D       G 
Would you come to me for to ease my pain? 
                          C 
If you needed me, I would come to you, 
        G                   D         G 
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain, 

                                 C 
Well the night's forlorn and the morning's born, 
        G                       D         G 
And the morning's born with the lights of love, 
                               C 
And you'll miss sunrise if you close your eyes, 
    G                   D        G 
And that would break my heart in two, 

                           C 
If I needed you, would you come to me? 
          G                 D       G 
Would you come to me for to ease my pain? 
                          C 
If you needed me, I would come to you, 
        G                   D         G 
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain, 

Instrumental Break 

                           C 
Baby's with me now since I showed her how, 
   G            D       G 
To lay her lily hand in mine, 
                             C 
Who could ill agree, she's a sight to see, 
  G                D       G 
A treasure for the poor to find, 

                           C 
If I needed you, would you come to me? 
          G                 D       G 
Would you come to me for to ease my pain? 
                          C 
If you needed me, I would come to you, 
        G                   D         G 
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.
 
(Hum last two lines of Chorus)
