[Verse]
  [Am7]              [Bm7]
I need you love in every way
  [Am7]                   [Gmaj7]
I need your strength to make me great
  [Am7]
I've been so wrong
         [Bm7]      [Dsus4]    [D]
Am I too late?

[Chorus]
                                  [Am7]     [D]
Just hold me like Johnny Cash
               [Gmaj7]
When I lost my mother
               [Am7]      [D]
Whisper in my ear
               [Gmaj7]    [G7]
Just like June Carter
    [C]        [D]           [G]      [D/F#]      [Em]
And though I fight these tears that I hide
    [Am7]      [D]           [C]    [G/B] [Am7]   [G]
Just hold me tight for the rest of my life

[Verse]
  [Am7]               [Bm7]
I need your mind to understand
  [Am7]               [Gmaj7]
I need your soul, it makes me a better man
  [Am7]
With you by my side
    [Bm7]             [Dsus4]       [D]
I'd have a chance

[Chorus]
                                [Am7]      [D]
Just hold me like Johnny Cash
               [Gmaj7]
When I lost my mother
               [Am7]      [D]
Whisper in my ear
               [Gmaj7]    [G7]
Just like June Carter
    [C]        [D]           [G]      [D/F#]      [Em]
And though I fight these tears that I hide
    [Am7]      [D]           [C]    [G/B] [Am7]   [G]
Just hold me tight for the rest of my life
