-2   -5  -5 5*  -5
For once in my life 
-5 5*   -5  -5   5*  -5   7
I have some-one who needs me 
-5*  -5*   -5  -5* -5* -5  -5*
Some-one, I’ve need-ed so long 
 3   -5* -5* -5 -5*  -5* -5 -5*
For once, un-a-fraid, I can go 
 -5*   -5   -5*  -7
Where life leads me 
 7   -6  -6   6  -6   -6  6    -6
And some how, I know I'll be strong 
-3* -7* -7* -7  -7* 
For once I can touch 
-7*  -7  -7*   -7* -7  -7*  8
What my heart used to dream of 
 -7* -7* 7  -5* 5
Long be-fore I knew 
 -7  -7   -6   -5  -3*
Some-one warm like you 
  5    -5  -5   7    -5   5
Would make my dream come true 

-2   -5  -5 5*  -5
For once in my life 
-5  5*  -5  -5   5*  -5  7
I won't let sor-row hurt me 
-5*  -5*  -5  -5* -5* -5  -5* 
Not like it's hurt me be-fore 
 3  -5* -5* -5   -5*  -5*
For once I have some-thing 
-5 -5*  -5*  -5  -5* -7
I know won't de-sert me 
-6  -6  6  -6  -6 6  -6
I'm not a-lone an-y-more 
-3* -7* -7* -7 -7*  -7* -7 -7*
For once I can say this is mine 
-7*  -7    -7* 8
You can't take it 
-7* -7* -7 -7* -7* -7 -7* -7* -7 -7*  8
Long as I know I have love I can make it 
-7*  -9  -9 9*  -9
For once in my life 
-7* 9   -9   9  -7*   9  -7*
I have some-one who needs me 

REPEAT & end with

-7*  -9 -9  9*  -9   -7*
For once I can feel that 
 9   -9   9    7   9   -7*
Some-bod-y’s heard my plea

 9   -9  -9 9*  -9
For once in my life 
-7* 9   -9   9  -7*   9  -7*
I have some-one who needs me
