Capo on 2nd fret

G5                                 G5
well I can't tell you why I left you
                                A5
and I don't quite know why I'm here
                           D5
but nothing has moved my spirit
                           G5
since I saw you late last year

G5                      G5
every lover knows a reason
                              A5
and every woman has felt the same
                                   D5
although our minds record each heartache
                                   G5
a little lovin' can take away the pain

(chorus)
G5                           G5
hold me, hold me, hold me close
                            A5
caress my shoulders and my toes
                     D5
make me forget what I can't
                   G5
be my lover and my man

G5                          G5
a man he gives you all you need
                                          A5
(ooo)
some money to spend and a kiss when you please
                               D5
(ooo)
when you're broke down on the road
                                    G5
(ooo)
he'll come on by and lighten your load

G5                                 G5
well I guess I owe you something too
                                        A5
well it seems you've finally come on through
                              D5
and my southern manners do oblige
                                       G5
won't you come on over for a slice of pie?

(chorus)
G5                           G5
hold me, hold me, hold me close
                            A5
caress my shoulders and my toes
                     D5
make forget what I can't
                   G5
be my lover and my man
