Everything I Own
David Gates (c) 1972
Capo 7
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You sheltered me from harm,
G Gm6 D A
kept me warm, kept me warm.
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You gave my life to me,
G Gm6 D A
set me free, set me free.
Em G A Asus A
The finest years I ever knew
Em G A
were all the years I had with you.
G D Em A
And I would give anything I own,
G D Em A
Give up my life, my heart, my home.
G D Em A Asus A
I would give everything I own
G D
just to have you back again.
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You taught me how to love,
G Gm6 D A
what it's of, what it's of
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You never said too much but still you showed the way
C G D
and I knew, from watching you
Em G A-susA
Nobody else could ever know
Em G A
the part of me that can't let go
Bm D
Is there someone you know, you're loving them so
Gmaj7 G
but taking them all for granted?
Em G
You may lose them one day, someone takes them away
C A
and they don't hear the words you long to say.
(repeat Chorus)
G D
just to touch you once again.
(I don't know names of unusual chords but instead of playing Bm you can play the D shape
placing your finger on the 2nd string (B string)and then put it down for the next D
It sounds better than Bm.)
