[Verse]
Am Em
Have you seen him on the corner?
C G
and his lip would reach the pavement,
Am Em F G Am
he's been hiding from his razor, is he not an awful sight?
Am Em C G
In love, he was the purest, now he's frightening our tourists,
C G F G Am
if he'd gone and asked his father, oh, I'm sure he'd set him right.
[Chorus]
C G F G
Sayin', "Take her in your arms and tell her that you love her,
C G F G
take her in your arms and hold that woman tight!
C G F G
Won't you take her in your arms and tell her that you love her?
Am Em F G Am
If you're going to love a woman then be sure and do it right.”
[Verse]
Am Em C G
Now he met her at a disco, in a dive in San Francisco,
Am Em F G Am
and it all might have been different had he seen her in daylight.
Am Em C G
She was painted, she was scented, but she drove your man demented,
C G F G Am
If he'd gone and asked his father, oh, I'm sure he'd set him right.

Am Em C G
Here's a pub with fun and laughter, the landlord's buying bevy,
Am Em F G Am
there's a session in the corner, and the craic is grand tonight.
Am Em C G
But your man who's lost his woman, he's still at home lamenting,
C G F G Am
if he'd gone and asked his father, oh, I'm sure he'd set him right.
[Chorus]
C G F G
Sayin', "Take her in your arms and tell her that you love her,
C G F G
take her in your arms and hold that woman tight!

Am Em C G
Now, depression's not a million laughs, but suicide's too dang'rous,
Am Em F G Am
don't go leapin' out of buildin's in the middle of the night.
Am Em C G
It's not the fall but landin' that'll alter social standin'.
C G F G Am
so go first and ask your father, and I'm sure he'll set you right.

And here's a health to all true lovers, their sisters and their brothers,
