D A Bm G A
D A
1. I was lost and alone
Bm
Trying to grow
G A
Making my way down that long winding road
D A
Had no reason or rhyme
Bm
Like a song out of time
G A
And there you were standing in front of my eyes
How could I be such a fool?
To let go of love
And break all the rules
Girl, when you walked out that door
Left a hole in my heart
And now I know for sure
D A
R: You're the air that I breathe
Bm
Girl, you're all that I need
G A
And I wanna thank you lady
D A
You're the words that I read
Bm
You're the light that I see
G A
And your love is all that I need
2. I was searching the vain
Playing a game
Had no one else but myself left to blame
You came into my world
No diamonds, no pearls
Could ever replace what you gave to me girl
Just like a castle of sand
Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands
And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side
Through the joy and the pain
R: You're the air that I breathe...
