Verse 1
You're not a ship to carry my life,
You are nailed to my love in man- y lonely nights,
I've strayed from the cottages and found myself here,
For I need your love,
Your love--- pro - tects--- my fears
Bridge
And I wonder, sometimes, and I know I'm unkind,
But I need you to turn to when I act so blind,
And I need you to turn to when I lose control,
You're my guardian angel who keeps out the cold----!

Verse 3
Did you paint your smile on? Well, I said I knew...
That my reason for living was for----- loving you,
We're re - lated in feeling, but you're high a - bove,
You're pure and you're gentle,
With the grace---- of---- a dove
Bridge
And I wonder, sometimes, and I know I'm unkind,
But I need you to turn to when I act so blind,
And I need you to turn to when I lose control,
You're my guardian angel who keeps out the cold----!

VERSION 2
Song: I need you to turn to
Artist: Elton John
Composers: Elton John & Bernie Taupin
Album: Elton John
Tabbed by DJ 21st Jan 2013
Playing the chords fingerstyle with arpeggios
and having the capo at the 7th fret, gives it a bit
of the flavour of that bright harpsicord sound.
TIME SIGNATURE: 3/4 time (Waltz time)
CAPO: 7th fret
(Will then sound in the recorded key of Em)
