Everything I Own
David Gates (c) 1972
Performed by Bread
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You sheltered me from harm,
G Gm6 D D(add E) A
kept me warm, kept me warm.
D Dmaj7 Bm D
You gave my life to me,
G Gm6 D D(add E) A
set me free, set me free.
Em A Asus A
The finest years I ever knew
Em 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 G Gm6 D A
You taught me how to love, what it’s of, what it’s of
D Bm
You never said too much but still you showed the way
C G D
and I knew, from watching you
Em A Em A
Nobody else could ever know the part of me that can’t let go
(repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
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.
