Verse 1: 

E                                A7 
 Did I hear you say you love me? 
          E                 A7 
Well baby I've got to know. 
     E                               A7 
'Cos if you really, feel you love me, 
              E                 A7 
You've got to do things to show. 

E                                   A7 
 Don't give me the wrong impression, 
E                      A7 
 By showing me warm ex-pressions. 
E                              A7 
 Put me in the right direction, 
E                        A7 
 With tender love and af-fection.

 Trying to get on the inside.

Well baby tell me the truth. 
     E                               A7 
'Cos if you really, feel you need me, 
              E                    A7 
My sweetness, here's what I'll do; 

E                             A7 
 Cut out all my crazy playing, 
     E                         A7 
'Cos for your love I have been laying. 
     E                                  A7 
Just tell me that is what you're saying, 
    E                               A7 
And I'll be yours without delaying. 
                   A7 
Without de-laying. 

Chorus 2: 

A7                         D7 
 I've been standing on the outside, 
G7         A7  Bb7    B7 
 Trying to get on the inside.

 Put my love life right in the pocket, 
    E                             A7  
And dare someone to try to top it. 
    E                                A7 
And when you think I want to drop it; 
E                                       A7 
 Just love me 'till I beg don't stop it.

 Trying to get on the inside.
