Intro: 
D  Em/D (x16) 
Verse 1: 
D                  Em/D  D 
 Hold me, like the River Jordan, 
    Em/D        D            Em/D       D      Em/D 
And I will then say to thee; you are my friend. 
Verse 2: 
D               Em/D       D 
 Carry me, like you are my brother, 
Em/D            D       Em/D        D      Em/D 
 Love me like a mother; will you be there? 
Verse 3: 
     D           Em/D         D 
When weary, tell me; will you hold me? 
     Em/D           D              Em/D           D 
When wrong will you scold me; when lost, will you find me? 
Verse 4: 
         D          Em/D          D 
But they told me; a man should be faithful, 
    Em/D          D 
And walk when not able, 
Em/D                 D                 Em/D 
 And fight 'till the end, but I'm only human. 
Interlude: 
D  Em/D (x16) 
Middle 8: 
F           Eb         D 
 Everyone's taking con-trol of me, 
F               Eb            D 
 Seems that the world's got a role for me. 
F           Eb             D 
 I'm so confused; will you show to me; 
          C                 A

You'll be there for me, and care enough to bear me?
