Not sure if this even counts as a folk song. Does anyone happen to know this one? It's from Longing in their Hearts album I think

I have an approximation but it doesn't sound right.

Thanks

No, I don't think it's folk music, although Bonnie does some traditional blues. I found the lyrics here (click), along with lyrics for lots of Bonnie Raitt songs. Can't help with chords, but I think it's probably a good idea for us to make sure we have lyrics for a song in addition to answering a chords request.

You
(as recorded by Bonnie Raitt on Longing in Their Hearts)

Nobody else could make me happy
No one could hurt me like you do
You were the only one That mattered
Then you were gone...Love had moved on
Left me alone thinking of...
You...There was never any other
You...and I were created to be true
Isn't it Love that keeps us breathing
Isn't it love we're sent here for
Wasn't that love that we were feeling
(That was something baby)
Deep in our soul...Deeper than we know
Keeping me holding out for
You...There was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
True hearts in a world where love is dyin'
And I might as well have been dyin' when
We were apart
When you came back I felt the beating of my heart
You...There was never any question
You'll be forever on my mind
You and I, we were meant to be together
You...and only you
It was you...only you
You...Always you

Interesting choice.

Key of B -- capo2 play "A" position chords.
Interplay between A9 (Aadd2) and D/F#.
The minor is C#m and goes to the 5 chord
Bridge in D
