G                    C    G 
So many people don't understand  
G                 C 
What it's like to be like me 
G                          Em 
But I'm not different from anyone else  
G          G*    G 
I'm glad I found you  

G                       C        G 
It's not that we've got anything new  
G                      C 
It's not that it's any better or worse  
G                           Em 
the way life treats us is a blessing and a curse  
G          G*    G 
I'm glad I found you  

G                        C       G 
When you're walking in a crowded place  
G                        C 
I'll try to hide you and give you space  
G                             Em 
And I'll protect you from the things that come  
G          G*    G 
I'm glad I found you  

G                      C       G 
The other day when you took my hand  
G                     C 
We walked away to the promised land  
G                Em 
when i feel your soul in mine  
G          G*    G 
I'm glad I found you  

           C 
I'm glad I found you in this sad world 
            G 
for so many things had gone wrong  
           C 
it took me so long just to find you 
G              D 
right where we belong  

           C 
I'm glad I found you in this bad world 
         G 
you're a lifeline to me 
           C               C 
and when I hold you I will shield you 
         G                   D 
from the things that we both see
