Someone To Be Around Chords

[Verse]
A          C#m            B
I've spent my last ounce of hope,
A               C#m            B
I've got nothing to show for a while now,
A                     C#m
But if you throw me a rope,
                   B
I might be able to cope with the down and out
A                   C#m                  B
Wish I could float, the water's up to my throat
A                   C#m              B
And the calls to my friends they are drowning out,
A                  C#m                B
Last time we spoke I said I needed you most
A          C#m            B
I just need someone to be around
 
[Chorus]
 
A    C#m       B
Oh, someone to be around
A    C#m       B
Oh, someone to be around
 
[Verse]
 
A            C#m
My legs start to shiver,
B
My soul starts to quiver
A              C#m           B
I think of the last time you spoke to me
A        C#m              B
You said everything has a meaning,
A             C#m           B
Oh everything happens for a reason
A        C#m                 B
But when someone's alone the words aren't that strong
A          C#m                    B
And I just long for someone to be around
 
[Chorus]
 
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around
A  C#m  B
Ooh yeah
 
[Verse]
 
A                  C#m
See my head is all clouded
B
From thinking about it
A             C#m
I'm trying to find my peace of mind
B
But there's no way around it,
A            C#m
And you just compound it
B
By saying that I'm just a waste of time
A              C#m
I said maybe I know this,
B
But choose not to show it
A           C#m
I hope I am able to work it out
B       A      C#m                     B
But now I will struggle with all of my troubles
A          C#m           B
And I need someone to be around
 
[Chorus]
 
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around
A    C#m           B
Ooh, someone to be around
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around
A    C#m           B
Ooh, someone to be around
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around, yeah
A    C#m           B
Ooh, someone to be around, yeah
A   C#m           B
Oh, someone to be around, yeah
A    C#m           B
Ooh, someone to be around
 
A C#m B
