Got to be there,  
(Got to be there), be there  
          Db7M
In the morning  
 Gb7M(9)                     Fm7
When she says hello to the world  
Ab7M
Got to be there,
(Got to be there) be there 
          Db7M
Bring her good times 
Gb7M(9)                    Fm7
And show her that she's my girl

Oh, what a feeling there'll be 
Ab/Db          Ab7M         Cm7 Fm7
The moment I know she loves me  
              Db/Eb
'Cause when I look in her eyes I realize
 Db/Eb                        G7M  Bbm7     Db/Eb
I need her sharing the world beside me  
        Ab7M
So I've got to be there  
Got to be there, be there 
        Db7M
In the morning  
    Gb7M(9)              Fm7
And welcome her into my world  
    Gb7M(9)                 Fm7
And show her that she's my girl  
    Gb7M(9)            Ab7M  Db7M    Db/Eb
When she says: "Hello world!"  

(Got to be there) 
 Db/Eb                         G7M  Bbm7    Db/Eb
I need her sharing the world beside me
                Ab7M
That's why I've got to be there  
Got to be there, be there
             Db
Where love begins  
    Gb7M(9)               Fm7
And that's everywhere she goes 
      Gb7M(9)                 Fm7
I've got to be there, so she knows  
     Gb7M(9)                   Ab7M     Db7M
That when she's with me, she's home
