Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][D]
[G][Em][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Have I told [G]you lately that I love you?
[C]Well, if [Am]I didn't darling, I'm sorry
[Em]Did I re[G]ach out and hold you
in my loving arms
[C]Oh,[Am] when you needed me?
Now I [Em]realize that you need love, too
And I'll [G]spend my life making love to you

[Chorus 1]
[G]Oh,[Em] I forgot to be your lover
[C]And I'm sor[D]ry, I'm so sorry

[Verse 2]
[Em]Have[G] I taken the time to share with you
[C]All the [Am]burden that love will fare?
[Em]And have I done [G]the little
simple things to show you
[C]Jus[Am]t how much I care?
Oh, I've been [Em]workin' for you, doin' all I can
To [G]work all the time didn't make me a man

[Chorus 2]
[G]Oh,[Em] I forgot to be your lover
[C]And I'm sor[D]ry,
I'll make it up to you somehow, [G]baby[Em]
[C]I forgot to b[D]e your l[G]over[Em]
Gonna [C]make it up to you [D]somehow[G][Em]
[C]Oh, I'm sorry, [D]I'm sorry, [G]baby[Em]
I [C]forgot to be your [D]lover[G][Em]
[fade out]
