"Baby I Do"
 Sean Hayes


 I based this tablature off of the solo acoustic version.
Most of the song is the muted strum rhthym; I just showed
where the chords are played in relation to the lyrics.
Precise timing and strum patterns may be established from
the song itself. This is the way Hayes plays it in the
version off of which it is based, without question.
 Note the peculiar tuning for this song, which I have been
unable to locate anywhere else. I used a chord generator
in finding names for the chords in this tuning, but they
were all very uncommon and technical, so I just tabbed the
individual notes for each one.

 Anyway, I hope you enjoy playing "Baby I Do," which is
one of my favourite songs from the very talented Sean Hayes.

                   -Michael, a Guitarist,

Lyrics:

We fall down
Get back up
We hold each other, fall in love
Now we're walking
Your steps and mine
Back and forth, side by side

When I met you
Right then, I knew
If I ever had the chance, I would ask you
To spend a little time
Your heart and mine
Back and forth, side by side

Oh you're really something good
Hey you're really something true to me
Oh you're really something

Now you're asking
What I believe in
What's the plan, for our lives
I hear you I hear you
Beside me breathing
I got your back, by your side

When we make love
We make love
When we make love, we make love
Here beside you
Eye to eye with you
Back and forth, side by side

Oh you're really something good
Hey you're really something true to me
Oh you're really something

Baby I do
You never really know
Baby I do I do I do
You never really know
Baby I do
You never really know what's happening

Baby I do
You never really know
Baby I do I do I do
You never really know
Baby I do
You never really know what's happening

Baby I do
You never really know
Baby I do I do I do
You never really know
Baby I do
You never really know what's happening

Baby I do
You never really know
Baby I do I do I do
You never really know
Baby I do
Baby I do I do love you
