INTRO 

G x 2 bars 

verse 1 - Just piano (upper piano register) 
 G                            Em 
When I was younger, so much younger than today 
 C                        D 
I never needed anybody’s help in any way 
 G                              Em 
But now those days are gone, Im not so self assured 
 C                                     D 
Now I find, Ive changed my mind, Ive opened up the door 

 G                             Em 
Help me if you can Im feeling down 
       C                        D 
And I do appreciate you being round 
 G                                Em

 G                              Em 
And now my life has changed, in oh so many ways 
C                          D 
My independence seems to vanish in the haze 
 G                        Em 
But every now and then I feel so insecure 
C                                 D 
I know that I need you like Ive never done before 




 G                             Em

       C                        D
