            Everything I Own
David Gates (c) 1972

Capo 7

  D     Dmaj7             Bm   D
  You sheltered me from harm,
            G   Gm6       D  A
  kept me warm, kept me warm.
  D     Dmaj7           Bm  D
  You gave my life to me,
           G   Gm6      D  A
  set me free, set me free.
  Em            G            A  Asus  A
  The finest years I ever knew
  Em              G               A
  were all the years I had with you.

            G            D   Em     A
        And I would give anything I own,
        G          D        Em        A
        Give up my life, my heart, my home.
        G            D    Em      A  Asus  A
        I would give everything I own
                G              D
        just to have you back again.

D   Dmaj7            Bm  D
You taught me how to love,
          G Gm6     D    A
what it's of, what it's of
D         Dmaj7              Bm                  D
You never said too much but still you showed the way
      C G                 D
and I knew, from watching you
Em      G              A-susA
Nobody else could ever know
Em          G                  A
the part of me that can't let go
             Bm                       D
    Is there someone you know, you're loving them so
        Gmaj7               G
    but taking them all for granted?
            Em                         G
    You may lose them one day, someone takes them away
             C                                A
    and they don't hear the words you long to say.

(repeat Chorus)
        G               D
just to touch you once again.


(I don't know names of unusual chords but instead of playing Bm you can play the D shape 
placing your finger on the 2nd string (B string)and then put it down for the next D 
 It sounds better than Bm.)
