G5           F5        A#5                    C5
I act like I left her, but I really beg her to stay.

And the more that I press her is the more she slips

away.

Act like I don't need her but...Yo, you're

necessary...

Like ten days from now I won't see your face when I

sleep.


G5               F5      A#5              C5
Act like I can hear, but Jah knows I'm deaf.

Act like I can see but now, yo, from me sight has

left.

Act like I don't know but, I know these things...

Act like I don't feel it but I'm gonna feel it, every

morning now on

Chorus (one measure or four reggae skanks per chord):
G5           A#5
Each morning, on each night
C5                 F5
when I need you by my side

on each morning and on each night

when I need you

Like I don't care but each and every time

your face comes across it never ever leaves my mind.

Oh, like I don't know but...I know your thing

like I don't feel it, but I'm gonna feel it every

evening now on -

Each morning, on each night

when I need you by my side

on each morning and on each night

when I need you


N.C. (maybe an A#5 to C5 if anything)
I act like I left her, but the truth is I beg her, beg

her to stay...
G5                  F5                        A#5                  C5
And the more that I press her, means all the more that she slips away.
Act like I don't need her, but I'm here to tell you
that you're necessary.
Like ten days from now I won't see your face when I'm
on -

Each morning, on each night
when I need you by my side
on each morning and on each night
when I need you by my side.

- On each morning and on each night when I need you so
desperately.
