C5                      E5 
In this world, if you read the papers, Lord, 
                     F5                     C5 
you know everybody's fighting on with each other. 
C5 
You got no one you can count on, baby, 
         Bb5       F5 
not even your own brother. 
      C5              E5 
So if someone comes along, 
           F5                       G#5 
he's gonna give you some love and affection. 
 
(Chorus:) 
         C5                           Bb5 F5 
I'd say, get it while you can, yeah! 
       C5                     Bb5 F5 
Honey, get it while you can, 
          C5                     G5 
hey, hey, get it while you can, 
                            A5        G5 
don't you turn your back on love, no, no! 
 

          C5                E5 
Don't you know when you're loving anybody, baby, 
F5                                  C5 
you're taking a gamble on a little sorrow. 
C5                            
But then who cares, baby, 
                     Bb5     F5 
'cause we may not be here tomorrow, no. 
       C5                    E5 
And if anybody should come along, 
         F5                      G#5 
he gonna give you any love and affection. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
(Instrumental:) 
C5 E5 F5 C5 E5 F5 G#5 
(Chorus x2)
