If I Needed You chords by Lyle Lovett


Lyle Lovett Chords


"If I Needed You" by Townes Van Zandt
As played by Lyle Lovett on the "Step Inside This House" CD.

You might want to put this in your Lyle Lovett and Townes Van Zandt
archives.

I began this effort from the Unnofficial Texas Music Archive. There was a
 submission from David B.that I modified into this.

I took the time to attempt to tab it out the way Lyle Lovett plays it     XXX
on the "Step Inside This House" CD.  In the live show, Lyle had a capo
 way up on the 8th fret.

This next pick repeats through the song.  Lyle adds little flourishes
 here and there but those can evolve later

    me            and   ease          my    pain

If I Needed You
By Townes Van Zandt as played by Lyle Lovett

Capo 8

G
If I needed you

Would you come to me
                  C
Would you come to me
    D       G
And ease my pain

If you needed me
I would come to you
I would swim the seas
For to ease your pain

In the night forelorn
Aw, the morning's born
And the morning shines
With the lights of love
You will miss sunrise
If you close your eyes
And that would break
My heart in two



Lady's with me now
Since I showed her how
To lay her lilly
Hand in mine
Loop and Lil agree
She's a sight to see
And a treasure for
The poor to find

Thanks for the music, folks.  I'll try to keep the submissions coming.
Please send suggestions or requests since I'm not real good at this, yet.
