"I'd Love Just Once To See You"

Music & Lyrics by Brian Wilson/Mike Love

Guitar chord shapes and tab by: John in South Jersey

Below you have the basic chords over the lyrics -- plus -- my first attempt at teaching myself how to write out guitar chord shapes (for the verses) and guitar tablature (for the finger-picked chorus and coda).

				 									 
--------------------------------------------------------------------

	Guitar Chord Shapes and Names (for the verses):

	EADGBE		EADGBE		EADGBE
	xx0212		320001		x32010

--------------------------------------------------------------------
	Verse 1

    	    D7                 G7  	
	I'm doing this and I'm doing that

                  C
	And I'm a-walking the floor

        	  D7                       G7   
	I drink a little of this and eat a little that

	            C   
	And poke my head out the door

	Chorus 1	

        G		    G7		
	 I get thinking I'm wasting the night away

   	C			    F7	
	 I wouldn't mind if I could get with you right away

	G		G7
	 Oh honey don't know how long it's been
		
	C			     F7	
	 But this feeling's building up inside again

------------------------------------------------------------------
	Verse 2

	D7			 G7
	 I wash the dishes and I rinsed up the sink

		C	
	 Like a busy bee

	   D7			  G7
	I make up a song as I'm a-working along
	
		 C
	No one's watching me

-----------------------------------------------------------------
	Chorus 2

	G		      G7	
	 I wish that you were here to help me dry

	C		      F7	 
	 When's the last time you baked me a pie

	G		  G7
	 You had a way of making it come alive

	C			F7
	 It's not too late for you to take a drive
