C         Em7                     Am
Darling I love you very very very much

      F           Bb    Dm      C
And I really am relying on your touch

         Em7               F
But with all these people listening in

        Dm                      G       G G
I don't know where I ought to begin   (break)

[Bridge]

C                         F
Maybe we could hit upon a word

C                                 F
Something that the others haven't heard

         Dm                      G G
When you want me to love you    (break)

[Chorus]

                C
Just tell me to press

Em7                     Am
Right there, that's it, yes

         F                           Dm
When you feel the stress, don’t just stand there 

          |  C  |  %  | 
Tell me to press (Press, tell me to press!)

[Middle 8]

        F                     Eb
You can give me what I want I must confess

   F                       Eb
My body needs attention my mind is in mess

Eb           Em7
Oklahoma was never like this

G                       Em
Never like this, it was never like this

G                           Em
Ever like this, say, was it ever like this?

Eb                      Ab                     [ C ]
Oklahoma was never like this, it was never like this

Darling I know it really wouldn’t be a crime

     F             Bb     Dm        C
If I say I want to love you all the time

         Em7              F
But with all these people listening in

        Dm                    G       G G
I don't know where I ought to begin  (break)

[Bridge]

C                             F
Maybe we should have a secret code

  C                           F
Before we both get ready to explode

         Dm                    G G 
When you want me to love you  (break)

Right there, that's it, yes

         F                           Dm
When you feel the stress, don’t just stand there
