--------------------------------------------------------------------------- SONG Capo 2nd fret [Verse 1] Don't go jumping waterfalls, Please keep to the lake. People who jump waterfalls sometimes can make mistakes. [Chorus 1] And I need love, yeah I need love Like a second needs an hour, Like a raindrop needs a shower. Yeah I need love every minute of the day And it wouldn't be the same If you ever should decide to go away. [Solo] (see above) | A G | Em | Bm G | A | | A G |2/4 Em | Bm Bm/A | G | [Chorus 2] And I need love, yeah I need love Like a castle needs a tower, Like a garden needs a flower. Yeah I need love every minute of the day And it wouldn't be the same If you ever should decide to go away. [Verse 2] Don't go chasing polar bears, In the great unknown. Some big friendly polar bear Might want to take you home. [Chorus 3] And I need love, yeah I need love Like a second needs an hour, Like a raindrop needs a shower. Yeah I need love every minute of the day And it wouldn't be the same If you ever should decide to go away. [Verse 3] Don't run after motor cars, Please stay on the side. Someone's glossy motor car Might take you for a ride. [Chorus 4] And I need love, yeah I need love Like a castle needs a tower, Like a garden needs a flower. Yeah I need love, say I need love. Like a raindrop needs a shower. Like a second needs an hour, Every minute of the day And it wouldn't be the same If you ever should decide to go away. [freely] Don't go jumping waterfalls, Please keep to the lake.
