       Am     Am   Am   Am


     Am                       C
        Ain't no need to worry
     D                  Am
        Ain't no use to cry
     Am                       C
        'Cause I'll be comin' home soon
     D                   Am
        To keep you satisfied
     Am                   C
        You know I get so lonely
     D                       Am
        That I feel I can't go on

        Oh baby, I love you
     D                  Am
        What more can I say
     Am            C
        Oh baby, I need you
     D                       Am
        I miss you more everyday

Solo :  (chords from verse)

        I woke up early this morning
        And sun came shining down
        And it found me wishin' and hopin'
        Mama, you could be around
        Well ,you know that I need you
        More than the air that I breathe
        And I guess I'm just trying to tell you woman
        Oh, what you mean to me

Chorus:
Solo :  (chords from verse)

        I try to tell you I love you
        In each and every way
        I'm trying to tell you I need you
        Much more than a piece of leg

Chorus: Oh baby, I love you
        What more can I say
        Oh baby, I need you
        I miss you more everyday
        Oh baby, I love you
        What more can I say
        Oh baby I need your sweet lovin
        I miss you more every day

Thanks to David G.
