Hey there! This tab is for an unreleased song by Taylor Swift, who I really adore,
called Need You Now. This is my first tab, so don't be mad if it's not completely accurate,
but I just thought since there was not a tab for this and I truly love this song, I 
thought I'd tab it out. Again, I'm really sorry for any mistakes.

[Verse 1]
Em         C
I need you now
    G              D            Em
Red letters that I wrote on the wall
        C              G           D
And the message that I left when I called
Em         C
I need you now
G                    D          Em
Words I said drowned out by the rain
        C                      G         D
Waiting there for you, but you never came
   Am               G/B    D
My world's a little colder now
    Am          C       D
But I'm keeping warm somehow
[Chorus]
   G                  Em
So here you are at my window
             C
Guess nobody told you
        D
I don't need you, don't need you
      G               Em
And I waited, so frustrated
            C
Who's gonna hold you?
        D
I don't need you, don't need you now

[Verse 2]
Em         C
I need you now
G                 D           Em
Words I heard you whisper to me
           C              G        D
As we were walking down a one way street
Em          C
You need me now
G                       D           Em
That's what you've been telling my friends
              C             G           D
But I've come too far to go back there again
   Am                  G/B           D
My heart, my mind, and numbers have changed
    Am               C      D
You might as well forget my name
[Chorus]
   G                  Em
So here you are at my window
             C
Guess nobody told you
        D
I don't need you, don't need you
      G               Em

I don't wonder where you are
