Chords and lyrics for Youre The One by Roy Orbison

Bm 
You give me the feeling of ascending.
A 
Touching down and lifting off on feeling.
G 
Rising through the thunder and the lightning.
F#m 
Til I know the wonder so exciting.
 
The  
Bm 
world below us
F#m 
doesn’t know us.
Bm 
Still they try to
F#m 
follow where  
Fdim 
we 
 
run.
 
Between you and me. Ooh, you’re the  
F#m 
one.
 
D 
You, kissing my  
E 
breath 
 
away.
G 
You, sharing my  
A 
yesterdays.
Gmaj7 
You tomorrow, lead I’ll follow.
A 
When 
 
 
A7 
I hold you, I am undone.
 
You’re the  
Bm 
one
