the 2nd and 3rd time
there are variants
of this which I
haven't done yet
Verse 2:
Leroy, boy, you're my friend
You say how and I'll say when
Come and meet me down the street
Take a seat, it's my treat
You may not ever get this chance again
That empty feeling's just about to end
[repeat chorus]
Bridge 1:
Talkin' 'bout[Ebmaj7] life and what it m[Dm7]eans to you
[Ebmaj7] It don't mean nothin' if it d[Dm7]on't run through
[Ebmaj7] I got one thing to say, you [Dm7]know it's t[G]rue
[F] [C/E] [Bb/D] [[Bbmaj9]D-F-A-C ...[Dm7/A].......[Dm7/G].....]
You got to find some time to get this thing together
[repeat chorus]
Bridge 2:
Talkin' 'bout [Ebmaj7]things about that [Dm7]special one
[Ebmaj7] They may be stupid but they [Dm7]sure are fun
[Ebmaj7] I'll give it to you while we're[Dm7] on the r[G]un
Because we a[F]in't [C/E]got [Bb/D]time t[Bbmaj9]o get this [Dm7/A]thing t[Dm7/G]ogether, 'cause we
[Ebmaj9][G-Bb-D[Gm7/D]-F ...[Gm7/C].....][Fmaj7][Em7]
Got to get together with a woman who has been around
[Fmaj7] One who knows better than to [Em7]let you down
[Ebmaj7] Let's hope there's still one left in [Dm7]this whole t[G]own
And that she'll t[F]ake [C/E]some [Bb/D]time t[Bbmaj9]o get this [Dm7/A]thing to[Dm7/G]gether 'cause
[Bbmaj9](Get this [Dm7/A]thing to[Dm7/G]gether 'cause)
[Bbmaj9]Get this t[Dm7/A]hing tog[Dm7/G]ether 'cause

[Dm9] [Dm9/G] [Cmaj7] [Am7]
[C-E-F-A] [B-C-E-G] [A-C-E-G]
We gotta get you a woman
[Dm9] We gotta[Dm9/G] get you a [Cmaj7]woman[Am7]
[Dm9] We gotta[Dm9/G] get you a [Cmaj7]woman[Am7]
