                           I got 
something for you, man.

G, D, A, Em,
G, Bm,                    A
      (You gotta say it, you gotta 
say it)



VERSE 1:

 Bm                     Bm/A
Silence is golden but these are the 
words
          Bm
that the world needs to hear. 
(Brothers and sisters)
 Bm                       Bm/A
Terms of compassion will cause a 
reaction
    Bm                  Bm/D
As love drawls them near
               G                   
But still we choose to hide behind 
     Bm
the face of pride
            A                 
Pretending we are blind to the 
  Em
calling
            G                      
This is my point and case, if hate 
     Bm
can be erased
          A                        
With such a simple phrase, why are 
 Em
we stalling?



CHORUS:

 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I long
 to hear them).

 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I 
long, I long, I long to hear them).




G   Bm   A
          Ya gotta say it, ya gotta 
say it, say it.



VERSE 2:

 G                  Em
Some just assume we already know
        Bm                  A
Of the love that they feel.  
(Brothers and sisters)
 G                      Em
Some have a heartfelt emotion
               Bm             A
But never the words to reveal.
           G                       
I think we all relate, so why are 
Bm
we afraid
            A                      
To let our hearts convey what we're
  Em
 feeling?
            G                      
There is a world in need with 
   Bm
hungry souls to feed
          A
And love can intercede if we're 
willing, so...



CHORUS:

 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I long
 to hear them).
 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I 
long, I long, I long to hear them).




G   Bm   A
          Ya gotta say it, ya gotta 
say it, say it.


          Bm
The word love, well it was once 
overused
back in the 70's the word was abused
         G/B
But I refuse to let love be diluted.
We can't allow physical lust to 
intrude it.
       Em/B
Or pollute it cause there ain't no 
excuse
for the greatest gift of all to be 
abused
     Bm
So choose to lose the pride that may
 tug at you.
Don't be afraid of the words "I love
 you".



CHORUS:

 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you".
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I long
 to hear them).
 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I 
long, I long, I long to hear them).



CHORUS:

 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I long
 to hear them).
 G              D                 
Say the words, say the words, say 
    A    Em
"I love you" (Say "I love you").
 G       Bm              A
Say the words I long to hear (I 
long, I long, I long to hear them).
