Verse 1:
C          G   C                  A       G          C                   
      G                        F     G
I'm all alone,   and I can't be without you,   can you feel this pain
that's in my heart?
C                G   C                    A           G        C         
    G                F      G
It's been so long,   since I have had you near me,   and it is tearing me
apart


CHORUS:
C                            A                                   D       
                           F*
I wanna be with you, I wanna change my life, I wanna help somebody, you
know I've got the time
C                                            A
I know there's pain inside you, don't want another girl 
D                                                    F*
You don't like the earth we live on?  then I will change the world


Verse 2:
C            G                     A      G          C                   
G                   F       G
Well, it's true,   that I can say I love you,   with all that's left
inside my soul
C                       G  C                         A           G       
C
You're the only one     that makes me laugh instead of cry,  
                        G                             F         G
You're the only one that makes me whole


(CHORUS)


BRIDGE:  (lots of scratching)
                  A                       C                              
      G                                   
I want the world, I'll take control, I'll try to make things right, I
won't turn out the lights
             G                        A
I won't turn my back on you
                           C                        G                    
                 F
When things go down, I'll turn it all around, turn a smile from a frown
             G                     C
That's what I'm gonna do


Solo (I think):
IMPORTANT:In order for the solo to sound right, the first time you hit
the 6th fret on the B string, play it regular, but every time you hit the
6th fret after that, bend the string before you pluck
B---------4----6-4------4-66-4-------6666-4--6666-4----4---4---6-4-----------B
G--3/5-5--5-3----5-3-5--------5-3-5---------5--------5-5--55--5----5-3-5-3---G


(CHORUS)


Lead part near the end:


B--6-5----B
G------5--G   till the end of the song
