D(2) A/C# A(no3)
[D]Baby I've been s[A]earching like [E]everybody [A]else.
[D]Can't say noth[A]ing different about [E]myself[D].
[D]Sometimes I'm an [A]angel, And [E]sometimes I'm [A]cruel,
And [D]when it comes to [A]love, I'm just [E]another [A]fool.
Yes I'll [E]climb a [A]mountain,[D][A]
I'm gonna [E]swim the [A]sea.[D][A]
There ain't no [E]act of [A]God, girl,[D][A]
Could keep you s[E]afe from [A]me.[D][A]
My arms are [Bm/F#]reaching [F#m]out,[Bm/F#][F#m]

(VERSE 2)
[D]So don't you [A]dare and try to [E]walk [A]away.
[D]I've got my [A]heart set on our [E]wedding [D]day.
[D]I've got this [A]vision of a [E]girl in [A]white,
[D]Made my dec[A]ision that it's [E]you all [A]right.
And when I [E]take your [A]hand,[D][A]
I'll watch my [E]heart set [A]sail.[D][A]
I'll take my [E]trembling f[A]ingers,[D][A]
And I'll lift [E]up your [A]veil.[D][A]
Then I'll [Bm/F#]take you [F#m]home,[Bm/F#][F#m]
And with [A]wild abandon,
[D]Make love to[A] you just like a [E]true [A]companion,[D][A]
You are my [E]true com[A]panion,[D][A]
I got a [E]true com[A]panion,[D][A]

(VERSE 3)
When the[D] years have [A]done ir[E]reparable [A]harm,
[D]I can see us [A]walking slowly [E]arm in [D]arm.
[D]Just like that c[A]ouple on the [E]corner [A]do.
'Cause g[D]irl I will [A]always be in [E]love with [A]you.
And when I [E]look in your [A]eyes,[D][A]
I'll still [E]see that [A]spark.[D][A]
Until the s[E]hadows [A]fall,[D][A]
Until the r[E]oom grows [A]dark.[D][A]
Then when I [Bm/F#]leave this E[F#m]arth,[Bm/F#][F#m]
I'll be with the a[A]ngels standin'.
[D]I'll be out there [A]waiting for my [E]true co[A]mpanion,[D][A]
[E]True com[A]panion,[D][A]
[E]True com[A]panion.[D][A]
