Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Strangely  out of place
There  is a light filling this room  where
 None would follow before
 I can't deny it burns me up inside
 I fan the flames to melt away my pride
 Do I want shelter from the rain
 Or the  rain to wash me away
I  need You, I need You, I need  You,
I  need You, I need You, I need  You,
You're  all I'm living for
I  might sound like a fool
But  I think I felt You moving  closer to me
Face  to the ground to hide the fatal cut
 I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up
 You are the shelter from the rain
 And the rain  to wash me away
 2nd Chorus:
I  need You, I need You, I need  You
I  need You, I need You, I need  You (You're all I'm living for)
I  need You, I need You, I need  You
 You're  all I'm living for  (all I'm living for)
 All I'm living for (all  I'm living for)
 You're  all I'm living for
Face  to the ground to hide the fatal cut
 I fight the weight, I feel You lift me up
I  can't deny it burns me up inside
 I fan the flames to melt away my pride
 Only have a second to spare
 All the time  in the world to know You're there
 You are the shelter from the rain
 And the rain  to wash me away
 Repeat 2nd Chorus:
