    Dont You Take It Too Bad

  • Artist:

    Townes Van Zandt

C5                   F5                        C5
      Dontcha take it too bad, if you're feelin' unlovin'
                          G5                          C5
      If you're feelin' unfeelin', if you're feelin' alone.
                                                      F5
      Dontcha take it too bad, 'cause it ain't you to blame babe,
                  C5                             G5
      It's only a game made, out of all of this livin'
                          C5   F5   C5
      That we got left to do.


      And if you go searchin' for rhyme or for reason
      Then we won't have the time that it takes just for talkin'
      About the places you've been babe
      About the faces you've seen babe
      And how soft the time flies, past your window at night.

      And we just can't have that girl
      Cause it's a sad lonesome cold world
      And a man needs a woman to stand by his side
      And whisper sweet words in his ears about daydreams
      And roses and playthings
      And the sweetness of springtime
      And the sound of the rain.

C5                     F5                         C5
Don't you take it too bad, if you're feelin' unlovin'
              G5      G5                        C5
If you're feelin' unfeelin, if you're feelin' alone
                      F5                                   C5
Don't you take it too bad, cause it ain't you to blame, babe
                       G5                               G5
well it's some kind of game, babe, out of all of this living,
                C5
that we've got left to do.

Aw if you go searchin, for rhyme or for reason
well then you won't have the time that it takes just for talkin
about the places you've been, babe, and the faces you've seen, babe
and how soft the time flies past your window at night.

And we just can't have that girl, cause it's a hard lonesome cold world
and a man needs a woman to stand by his side
and whisper sweet words in his ears about daydreams
and roses and playthings, and the sweetness of springtime
and the sound of the rain.
