Bret Michaels - All I Ever Needed Chords & Tabs

Bret Michaels
Freedom of Sound CD
All I Ever Needed w/Jessica Andrews



Bret Michaels is one of my favorite song writers ever, from Poison to his solo stuff,
this song is more aimed toward country music but it is awesome!
This is how I think it goes....

Capo on 2nd Fret

Intro: G, Cadd9 2X   

Verse 1:

               G               Cadd9
There you lay, here I stand
     G                                         Cadd9
He knelt down on his knees and took her by the hand
                            G                     Cadd9
We've seen some good times, been through some bad
          D                                      Cadd9
Somewhere between the laughter and the tears, we sure has alot of great years she said:

Chorus:
G                                            D
We didn't need fortune, we didn't need fame
                                    Em
Just a little shelter from the rain
                                  Cadd9
Your hand to hold on to, when times got tough you pulled me through
     G                                     D
We didn't need a castle made of stone, just you there as I grow old
                              Cadd9                  G I Cadd9, G, Cadd9
Your heart to hold on to, all I ever needed was you

Verse 2:
                              G           Cadd9
Remember our first dance, our first kiss
 G                                           Cadd9
I pictured my life with you to be just like this
                      G                                           Cadd9
You stand by me (You stood by me), I stand by you (I stand by you)
      D            
We shared the laughter, joy, and the pain
    Cadd9
It's moments like this I hope they never change

Repeat Chorus:

Solo Chords:  G             D                                  Em   Cadd9
                                       Share my life with you girl
D
I thank you for sharing you life with me
                    Cadd9
And for giving me a reason to believe
          Em                 D 
For loving me for who I am

Chorus:

G                                            D
We didn't need fortune, we didn't need fame
                                    Em
Just a little shelter from the rain
                                  Cadd9
Your hand to hold on to, when times got tough you pulled me through
     G                                     D
We didn't need a castle made of stone, just you there as I grow old
                              Cadd9                  
Your heart to hold on to, all I ever needed was you
     Cadd9                       G, Cadd9, G, Cadd9
All I ever needed was you
