This is a chords version for "need for control."
You can use barre chords or open chords or mix them up..whatever you want.
I personally think barred chords sound best on the verse and bridge.
Enjoy.
INTRO
 A-  E-  Bm-  D[x3]  A-  E- D  
I don't think you'll Eever step dBmown
A fDather's devotAion unbroken

Give Aup your Eneed Bmfor control, you're jDust prolonging
And Alet him Eface tBmhis on his Down
Give Aup your Eneed, your Bmneed for Dcontrol
VERSE 2
Too afraid to Ewatch it unBmfold
DResentment for Ahis choices
Feel hEeartless, but you can't foBmrget

BRIDGE - NOTE: for the Bm, pluck the B on the top E string,
