Intro:        G 
                         G 
When I was lonely and scared 
                     Em 
I nearly fell for a TV preacher 
      C               D 
In a hotel room in Tokyo 
     G                          Em 
Oh, you truly saved me from that suicide 
                 C           D                 G 
Because all the things, I die along with you 
               G 
Remember the time 
                               Em 
When I went to jump out of that apartment window 
       C                            D 
On the west side of town of ol' New York 
     G                      Em 
Oh, you saved me from that suicide 
                   C            D 
Because of all my foolish pride 
                  C                    D 
Well, if I could thank you, thank you 
               G         Bb        G    Bb   G 
For saving my soul with your true love
