The Wanted - Only You

Taken from the group's third album Word Of Mouth (Deluxe Edition), great song and quite powerful. If you guys
don't know already, Jay McGuiness a fifth of the group, wrote the song alongside Paddy Dalton and it focuses
on those who struggle with addictions and finding a way out, real meaningful song!

Tuning: Standard
Capo 1st Fret

Verse
F      G   Am    C                G       F 
How    can I,    hold a mirror up to your eyes?
F      G   Am    C                 G      F
speak  the way,  you can understand what's inside
F                        G   Am
you've been broken down in a thousand different ways
          C                            G     F
I've been looking over pictures and you hardly look the same
      F                       G    Am  
I can see it from a mile that the way you smile has changed
    C     G    F
but you   don't know


During the pre-chorus which is:

It's hard for me to sit and watch you getting sick

when all I wanna do is try...

I like to play the riff over the top which is something like this:

e|---------------------------------|
b|---------------------------------|
g|---------------------------------|
d|----------------0-0--------------|
a|------0---3-3---------3-0--------|
E|--3------------------------3--1--|

NOTE: listen to the song to figure out when the riff is played over the pre-chorus!

Chorus
F      G  Am       C                G      F
Only    you,   can dig yourself out just before you break down
F      G  Am       C                G      F 
only    you,   can lift yourself up just before you get stuck 
F                G          Am
all of this pain spread all over your face
C                 G        F
all I wanna do is help you out of this place
F      G  Am      C            G      F                   F
only    you,   so hurry up now just before you run out of time
G   Am                 C     G  F
before you run out of time

Verse 2
F    G  Am    C                   G     F
Beautiful,    that's the only way I see you
  F    G  Am      C                  G      F
nobody else,  can love you in the way that I do
F                        G          Am
sometimes I get worried that you're taking on too much
         C                      G           F
and this crazy world we live in doesn't really give a f**k 
   F                    G     Am 
if only we could paddle to a place where it was just
C     G   F
you   and I
