Bb            Eb
Well, now, it takes more than a robin to make the winter go.
       Ab                        Eb
And it takes two lips of fire to melt away the snow.
         Bb                 Ab         Bb          Ab
Well, it takes two hearts a-cookin' to make a fire grow..
    Bb                       Eb
and baby, you've got what it takes.

You know it takes a lot of kissin', to make a romance sweet.
        Ab                       Eb   
Ooh, it takes a lot of lovin' to make my life complete.
            Bb             Ab       Bb              Ab
Mmm, and it takes a lot of woman to knock me off my feet..
    Bb                       Eb
and baby, you've got what it takes.

CHORUS:
            Ab      Eb             Ab

Because it takes more than an effort to stay away from you.
     Ab                           Eb
It'd take more than a lifetime to prove that I'll be true.
       Bb             Ab         Bb             Ab
But it takes somebody special to make me say, I do.
          Bb                 Eb
And baby, you've got what it takes.

CHORUS:
            Ab      Eb             Ab
And I said, oooooo, ummmmmmm..aha..mmmmmmmmmm..mmmmm.
