Lyrics and Music by Samuel Smith, James Napier and Elvin Smith
feat. John Legend

Ebmaj
Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was,
                             G#add9
Right there, right next to you.
And it’s hard the days just seem so dark,
The moon, and the stars
Are nothing without you.
     Ebmaj
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain
                      G#add9
The way I’m missing you.
Tonight this emptiness,
This hole that I’m inside,
These tears, they tell their own story.

 Fm               G#           Cm
   Told me not to cry when you were gone,
 Bb        Fm            G#
   But the feeling’s overwhelming,
               Eb/Bb Bb9sus4
   It’s much too strong.

Chorus:
         Eb             Cm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Fm7  G#   G#sus2 G#
     Next to you, you?
         Eb                  Cm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Fm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           G#
     And I don’t want to be here
        Bb9sus4           Eb
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

    Ebmaj
I’m reaching out to you,
              G#add9
Can you hear my call? Ooh.
     Ebmaj
This hurt that I’ve been through,
I’m missing you,
                    G#add9       Bb9sus4
I’m missing you like crazy, uuh.

Chorus:
         Eb       Gm/D   Cm
     Can I lay by your side,
             Fm7     G#
     Next to you, to you?
         Eb               Gm/D   Cm
     And make sure you’re alright.
                       Fm7
     I’ll take care of you,
           G#
     And I don’t want to be here
        Bb9sus4            Fm
     If I can’t be with you tonight.

Next to you, you?
