Intro: G Am C G

Verse 1:
Life is too far to walk alone
You can’t do it on your own
It’s like bare hands digging through stone
And if things go down much steeper hills
Even money won’t pay these bills
And time will show

Chorus:
That people gonna be ok
Storms never come to stay

They just show us
How bad we need each other
How bad we need each other
And the trials of today
They are signs along the way
To remind us how bad we need each other
How bad we need each other

Interlude: G Am C G

Verse 2:
You know I can get so high on myself sometimes
I keep on drifting a million miles from this planet
But what a shame it would be to look back on this life
And realize that I’ve taken you and you for granted

Chorus:

That people gonna be ok
Storms never come to stay
They just show us
How bad we need each other
How bad we need each other
And the trials of today
They are signs along the way
To remind us how bad we need each other
How bad we need each other

Bridge:
And I, I can’t see what’s a mile around the bend
I do not know where this world is headed or where it may end
But you gave me this smile
So I threw away my frown
And I ain’t gonna pick up
What I just put down

Chorus:
That people gonna be ok
Storms never come to stay
They just show us
How bad we need each other
How bad we need each other
People gonna be ok
Storms never come to stay
They just show us
How bad we need each other
Don’t you know? How bad we need each other
We oughta take a little time to sit
Because the wisest men forget
How bad we need each other
Don’t you know? How bad we need each other
