Somebody True

Traditional Black gospel meets classic rock, warm church hall acoustics with very clear choir vocals, Hammond B3 organ, overdriven electric guitar, live drums and hand claps, steady 88–94 BPM groove, powerful male lead with expressive gospel runs and full SATB choir responses

[Intro] (Hammond organ swell, soft choir hum) [Verse 1] [Lead] When the road gets long and the night won't end I need a voice that knows my name again In the high and the low, in the laugh and the tear There's one steady hand that keeps me here [Pre-Chorus] [Lead] Trust is the fire that warms the cold Trust is the story that never grows old [Chorus] [Choir] Everybody needs somebody to hold [Lead] In the beautiful moments and when we're not so bold [Choir] Everybody needs somebody true [Lead + Choir] Trust is the gift I'm giving to you [Verse 2] [Lead] When the sky turns gray and the wheels come loose You're the anchor line, you're the saving truce Through the joy and the pain, through the wrong and the right You're the harbor light in the middle of the night [Pre-Chorus] [Lead] Trust is the bridge when the water rises Trust is the song that never compromises [Chorus] [Choir] Everybody needs somebody to hold [Lead] In the beautiful moments and when we're not so bold [Choir] Everybody needs somebody true [Lead + Choir] Trust is the gift I'm giving to you [Bridge] [Lead] Trust is rare, but it's worth the cost [Choir] Worth the cost [Lead] Trust is the compass when we're lost [Choir] When we're lost [Lead + Choir] Hold it close, don't let it go Trust is the love that helps us grow [Chorus] [Key Change] [Choir] Everybody needs somebody to hold [Lead] In the beautiful moments and when we're not so bold [Choir] Everybody needs somebody true [Lead + Choir] Trust is the gift I'm giving to you [Outro] [Choir] (sustained "ooh") [Lead] (ad-libs: "Somebody true... trust in you...") (Hammond fade, hand claps out)
