Bryan Adams wants Somebody to be a Savior © 2000 by David J. Landegent.

I got my first real six-string, Bought it at the five-and-dime, Played it till my fingers bled, Was the summer of '69. Me and some guys from school Had a band and we tried real hard. Jimmy quit, and Jodie got married, I shoulda known we'd never get far.

I been lookin' for someone Through the fire and the flame. We're all lookin' for someone – to ease– the pain Now who can I turn to When it’s all black as night And the winners are losers, You see it E–very night.

Oh, when I look back now, The summer saw my life get better That’s when I made the choice, Yeah, I’d follow You forever Your Word has blessed me all my life All my life was complainin’ That’s because I didn’t know You Then one evening down at the drive-in, And that's when I met You. You were knockin’ on the door You told me I could live forever Oh, and when I took a stand I knew that it was now or never, Your Word has blessed me all my life Oh yeah, back in the summer of '69, oh— I– had been killin' time, I was young and restless, I needed to unwind I found Your Word can last forever, forever, oh interlude Although the times are a-changin', Look at everything that's come and gone. Every time I play that old six-string, Lord, I love You with a brand new song chorus b Back in the summer of '69, oh yeah Meetin’ my Savior in ’60, oh It was the summer, the summer, The summer of ‘69 chorus three times

I need a Savior, A Savior like You. Everybody needs a Savior I need a Savior, Lord, what about You? Everybody needs a Savior. interlude When I’m out on the front line And I’m watchin' them fall, It doesn't take long to realize Can there be LIFE for all I thought I saw the Messiah When You entered the gloom And Your eyes were like diamonds And they cut right through, Oh, they cut right through I need a Savior, A Savior like You. Everybody needs a Savior, oh yeah I need a Savior, Lord, what about You. We all need a Savior interlude In the night, another candle burns Bridged the distance so we’d be saved Then the silent Man of Sorrows From death He ROSE again, ROSE again chorus ab I need a Savior, Everybody needs a Savior I need a Savior, Everybody needs a Savior
