As far as I know, Greg has not recorded it anywhere else. This is the first time I have ever tried to transcribe anything. The chords seem to work for me but they may not be correct. (Capo – 3) G Am I don’t need to wake with you C Am G In a warm bed, -- my arm beneath your head G Am I don’t need to walk with you C Am G Through the rainy woods, -- bringing home the goods Am D G But there’s one thing I do need to do: (Chorus) G Am I need to tell you I love you C G Am Each and every day -- in each and every way G Am I need to tell you I love you Am D G And then - - I’ll feel – okay. I don’t need to kiss you On your pretty lips, -- my hands upon your hips I don’t need to miss you Quite so very much -- & ache for your touch But there’s one thing I do need to do: (chorus) I don’t need to cook with you In a kitchen full of friends, -- as the evening ends I don’t need to look at you As they smile and wave goodnight -- and then we turn out the lights Well there’s one thing I do need to do: I need to tell you I love you Each and every day, -- in each and every way I need to tell you I love you And then honey it’s gonna be okay. ------------------------- An alternate arrangement submitted by Dan Smith C F I don’t need to wake with you Dm F C In a warm bed, -- my arm beneath your head C F I don’t need to walk with you Dm F C Through the rainy woods, -- bringing home the goods C G C But there’s one thing I do need to do: (Chorus) C F I need to tell you I love you Dm F C Each and every day -- in each and every way C F I need to tell you I love you C G C And then - - I’ll feel – okay.
