A                        E 
I need someone that I'll look to,  
             F#m                D 
In the lonely hour, that we all go through  
        A                         E 
To give me comfort and love me through  
           F#m             D 
In the lonely hour, I need you,  
      A      E           F#m      D 
I need you.        I need you. 

         A                            E 
I don't need diamonds, I don't need jewels  
          F#m                        D 
No amount of riches will cover up these blues,  
         A                            E 
I don't need suggestions of how to start a new  
         F#m                      D 
In the lonely hour.         I need you,  

        F#m  E  A  A    D 
There's nothing I can do 
     F#m E     A  A    D 
I'm hopeless without you.  

     A                   E 
It's a lonesome point of view  
                 F#m                      D 
And there's a wistful silence in an empty room  
      A                          E 
These other voices they don't cut through  
           F#m             D 
In the lonely hour I need you,  
         A      E                  F#m    D 
I need you.              And I need you  

       A                       E 
I need someone that I'll look to 
             F#m            D 
In the lonely hour I need you,  
         A 
I need you.
