G            C     G                      C  
Listen to me baby, I'm tryin' to make you see. 
G                      C         D 
That I want to be with you girl, if you want to be with me. 


D                 G C G C    G     C G 
But if you gotta go,    it's alright.  
G                 C     G      D                              G C G 
But if you gotta go, go now or else you gotta stay all night. {RIFF} 


G           C              G            C 
I am just a poor boy baby, tryin' to connect. 
G                    C           D 
But I don't want you thinkin', O that I ain't got any respect. 

Chorus 
G                     C                G                C 
Now I'm not tryin' to question you, to take part in any quiz. 
G                      C               D 
It's just that I don't have a lot, and you keep asking me what time it is. 

Chorus 
G                   C                 G                      C 
Now I don't want to make you give, anything you never gave before. 
G                       C 
It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon,  
            ( D one note then N.C. ) 
It'll be too dark for you to find the door. 


N.C.                G C G C         G     C G 
But if you gotta go,    well it's alright.  
G                 C     G      D                              G C G 
But if you gotta go, go now or else you gotta stay all night. {RIFF}
