I Got You

[G]Hey, did you hear about[D] the one that got aw[Am]ay?                        [C]
They say he look[G]ed left, she turned right  [D]
[Am]Meant to be together but not that night [C]
It's when fate's [G]running late, we tend to[D] make mistak[Am]es                                [C]
We go 'round [G]and 'round from love to love            [D]
It's either way [Am]too much or not enough            [C]

Gimme lazy da[Am]ys with nothing better to [D]do than singing
[G]Old black water keep on rol[D]ling while I wait for you               [C]
[Am]I don't care if it rains, I'll be just fine
I'm lea[D]ving the ghosts behind until

[G]I got you, I got yo[D]u
You're the sun through[Am] my window warming my skin             [C]
[G]Oh you, I got yo[D]u, hey      [Am]            [C]

Then when one of them was taken
The other one was waiting for the next big thing
To bring them to the gates of heaven
Or maybe just a late night in Vegas

It's true that's what we do when we're going down swinging
Then coming up singing the blues, wearing out my shoes
Chasing new faces to get to you

[Am]Driving home on a summer night si[D]nging
[G]Old black water keep on rolli[D]ng till the time is ri[C]ght
[Am]I don't care if it rains, I'll be just fine
Sit ba[D]ck, enjoy the rude until

I got you, I got you
You're the sun through my window warming my skin
Oh you, I got you like Sonny and Cher except I'll be there for you
I got you, let old black water bring us together

Old black water keep on rolling
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shining on me?
Old black water keep on rolling
Mississippi moon, won't you keep on shining on me?

Wanna hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
Wanna hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, here she comes

I got you, I got you
You're the sun through my window warming my skin
Oh you, I got you like Sonny and Cher you know I'll be there for you
I got you, let old black water bring us together
You, I got you, I got you, I got you, baby

By the hand, hand, take me by the hand, pretty mama
Dance with your daddy all night long
Wanna hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand

By the hand, hand, take me by the hand, pretty mama
Dance with your daddy all night long
Wanna hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand

By the hand, hand, take me by the hand, pretty mama
Dance with your daddy all night long
Wanna hear some funky Dixieland
Pretty mama, come and take me by the hand
