                C            Em          F                 G 
1.   Day after day I must face a world of strangers 
            Em                Dm       
    Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong. 
C                 Em               F             G 
    It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to, 
             Em                   Dm 
    who will always care, you're always there. 
              C         Bb       F          - G 
When there's no getting over that rainbow, 
          C          Bb                F     - G 
when my smallest of dreams won't come true, 
       C           Bb         F             Am 
I can take all the madness the world has to give, 
      Dm           G           C                      
but I won't last a day without you. 
   - F     C  - F - G -  
  C          Em             F             G 
2.   So many times when the city seems to be without 
        Em              Dm        
    a friendly face, a lonely place. 
C                Em               F             G 
    It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you, 
              Em                 Dm 
   and you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile.   + REFRAIN  
     Am       D            G 
    Touch me and I end up singing, 
     Am               D           G 
    troubles seem to up and disappear. 
        F#m     B7                    E 
   You touch me with the love you're bringing, 
   C#m             F#m             E                 F     G  C 
    I can't really lose when you're near. When you're near, my love. 
  
 
  C            Em              F                  G 
3.  If all my friends have forgotten half their promises, 
            Em               Dm                 
    they're not unkind, just hard to find. 
C               Em         F                G 
    One look at you and I know that I could learn to live 
       Em                Dm                       
    without the rest, I found the best. 
+ REFRAIN     + G     + REFRAIN    + - F     C - F - G - C
