Intro:
A - F#aug -- F#7 --
B - C#m/E -- E7 --
A - Dm - A - E - A
They say it's a man's world
C#+ D
Well, that cannot be denied
But what good's a man's world
B7 A -
Without a woman by his side?
C# -
And so i will wait
F#m - Dm
Until that moment you decide
A -
That I'm your man
D -
And you're my girl
A -
That i'm the sea
D -
And you're the pearl
A - E --
It takes two, baby,
E7--C#m/E--Bm/A--A - E - A
It takes two
A king ain't a king
C#+ D
Without the pow'r behind the throne
A prince is a pauper. Babe,
B7 A -
Without a chick to call his own
C# -
So please, darling, choose me
F#m - Dm
I don't wanna rule alone
Tell me,
A -
I'm your king
D -
And you're my queen
A -
That no one else
D -
Can come between
A - E --
It takes two, baby,
Ey--C#m/E--Bm/A---A - A7 -
It takes two
D7
Lancelot had Guinevere
A7
Missus Claus had old Saint Nick
D7
Romeo had Juliet
A7
And Liz, well, she has her Dick
D7
They say it takes two to tango
A - F#m -
But that tango's child's play
B7 -- A9/C#--Bm7(b5)/D--B7/D# --
So take me to the dance floor
E9 -- F#m7 --Gm6--E9/G# -- A
And we'll twist the night away
Just like frankie avalon
C#+ D
Has his fav'rite mouseketeer
I dream of a lover, babe,
B7 A -
To say the things I long to hear
C# -
So come closer baby,
F#m - Dm
Oh and whisper in my ear
A -
That you're my girl
D -
And I'm your boy
A -
That you're my pride
D -
And I'm your joy
A -
That I'm the sand
D -
And you're the tide
A -
I'll be the groom
D -
If you'll be my bride
A - E --
It takes two, baby,
E7--C#m/E--Bm/A---A - F#m -
It takes two
B9 E7
It takes two, baby
A-Dm-A
It takes two...
