I've Got To Have You - from Anticipation - 1971
AYou came smilin' softly, shyly moGvin'
Easy as a dreamer into my roAom
And before I realized the daGnger
I found myself looking iAnto your eyesF#m7  
DSomewhere in their colors I saw promises
Of things I'd never seen beAforeF#m7  
It's all ovGer
Em7I've got to have yAou
AHolding onto, talking, saying noGthing
Knowing in a moment I could lose Ayou
Then without a warning I rememGbered that
You trembled at the toAuch of my hand
DKnowing when you came to me that no one else
Would ever feel the sAame in my arms
It's all ovGer
Em7I've got to have yAou
DmWakin' in the morning to the tendDm7erness
Of holding you aslAeep in my aF#m7rms
DmDreaming while your hair was blowing
Dm7Softer than a whisper on my chAeek
DI don't know the feeling so I don't know if it's love
But it's enoAugh
F#m7It's enough
I can't help iGt
EmI've got to haAve you
It's all ovGer
Em7I've got to have yAou

I've Got To Have You - from Anticipation - 1971

A G

You came smilin' softly, shyly movin'

Easy as a dreamer into my room

And before I realized the danger

A F#m7

I found myself looking into your eyes

Somewhere in their colors I saw promises

A F#m7

Of things I'd never seen before

It's all over

Em7 A

I've got to have you

A G

Holding onto, talking, saying nothing

Knowing in a moment I could lose you

Then without a warning I remembered that

You trembled at the touch of my hand

Knowing when you came to me that no one else

Would ever feel the same in my arms

It's all over

Em7 A

I've got to have you

Dm Dm7

Wakin' in the morning to the tenderness

A F#m7

Of holding you asleep in my arms

Dreaming while your hair was blowing

Dm7 A

Softer than a whisper on my cheek

I don't know the feeling so I don't know if it's love

But it's enough

F#m7

It's enough

I can't help it

Em A

I've got to have you

It's all over

Em7 A

I've got to have you
