How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)
(Holland, Dozier, Holland) 1964
Performed by James Taylor
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were [[G] ]
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs
and there you were [[G] ]
With sweet love and devotion
deeply touching my emotion [[G] ]
I want to stop and thank you baby [[G] ]
I just want to stop and thank you baby [[G]]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
I close my eyes at night,
wondering where would I be without you in my life [[G] ]
Everything I did was just a bore,
everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before [[G] ]
But you brightened up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways [[G] ]
I want to stop and thank you baby [[G] ]
I want to stop and thank you baby [[G]]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
You were better for me than I was for myself [[G] ]
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else [[G] ]
I want to stop and thank you baby [[G] ]
I just want to stop and thank you baby [[G]]
How sweet it is to be loved by you [[C] ]
