[Intro] A  D  E  
        A  D  E  A 

                A     Bm
Just like the trees along the river bend
E7                                  A
Lift up their branches to the sun above
A                               D
We spend our lifetime reaching for a friend
       E                           A
'Cause everybody needs someone to love

A                             D
Everybody's reaching out for someone
E                             A
Everybody's knocking at some door
     A                  D
And long before I ever found you
E                                   A
You're the one that I was reaching for

[Solo] A  Bm  E  
       A  D  E 

          A             Bm
I wanted you since the day my life began
E7                                 A
I've heard your footsteps running just beyond my mind
A                                D
Ever since the moment I've been reaching for your hand
E                                 A
Hoping you'd be reaching out for mine

A                             D
Everybody's reaching out for someone
E                             A
Everybody's knocking at some door
     A                  D
And long before I ever found you
E                                   A  D  E  A 
You're the one that I was reaching for

A                             D       E  A
Everybody's reaching out for someone
     A                  D        E  A
And long before I ever found you
