When I needed you most
K E L L A R

Em C D C   Em C D C
Em
Like fire on water things come to pass
     C
Like oil on water,like walking on glass
     D
Like sending your love to a promised land
          C                                      D
Where the milk and the honey taste a little bland
       Em
Like a cat among the pigeons,set yourself upon me
       C
Like a priest to a prophet lay your hand on me
       D
Like a flower in winter you show me your need
       C                                   D
When I needed you most you tried to set me free
    Em   C                    Em C
Oh baby,you were the worst I had

Em
On a beach, on a mountain our love can't exist
       C
Like a desert in summer our love burns the worst
D
Drowning in sorrow or sinking to swim
       C                                    D
When I needed you most you would not let me in

   Em/G  C/G                  Em/G
Oh baby,you were the worst I had
C                  Em/G
When_ I_ needed a helping hand
    D        C      Em
You wouldn't let me through
 
   Am                                         C                   D
   Sometimes I feel the pressure will get me, Sometimes I want to run
   Am                                           C                 D
   And when you said that you'd never forget me,oh, I should have known...

       Em
Like a rose made of paper your beauty has torn
   C
You had no emotion, now I need you more
         D
When you said you were leaving,I could not resist
C                                               D
 ,,To believe that it would be you who would be missed
 
  CHORUS

       Em
Like a tiger, a forest,as beauty is to beast
     C
Like running through mist our bodies feel the heat
       D
When I reached out my hand to touch your face
               C                               D
You said you'd never forgve me or give me your grace
