[Chorus]
C Bb
Won't you give me something
F C
Something to hold on to
C Bb
This whole world has taken
F C
Taken me for a ride
[Verse 1]
C Bb C
You come smiling through the doorway looking like an old regret
C Bb C
Still a whole lot better than you did last time we met
C Bb C
Between a real hard spot and a hole in a concrete wall
C Bb C
Running out of highway looking for a place to fall
[Chorus]
C Bb
Won't you give me something
F C
Something to hold on to
C Bb
This whole world has taken
F C
Taken me for a ride
C Bb
Pick me up and learn me
F C
Turn me down and burn me
C Bb
Darling won't you give me
F C
Give me one last try
[Verse 2]
C Bb C
Well to tell you true I thought we'd never be here again
C Bb C
Gonna feel alright now darling for the shape I'm in
C Bb C
Nearly fell to pieces just thinking it would all fall through
C Bb C
Feeling like somebody when you finally came into view
[Chorus]
C Bb
Darling won't you give me something
F C
Something to hold on to
C Bb
This whole world has taken
F C
Taken me for a ride
C Bb
Pick me up and learn me
F C
Turn me down and burn me
C Bb
Darling won't you give me
F C
Give me one last try
[Instrumental]
C Bb F C x4
[Verse 3]
C Bb C
Now I won't say it all worked out like I planned
C Bb C
Lucky I still got a leg on which to stand
C C C Bb C
I had a half of mind to get gone
C C C Bb C
Leave it a little try to move on
C Bb C
But I just sat there staring at the secondhand
C
On the barroom wall now
[Chorus]
C Bb
Darling won't you give me something
F C
Something to hold on to
C Bb
This whole world has taken
F C
Taken me for a ride
C Bb
Pick me up and learn me
F C
Turn me down and burn me
C Bb
Darling won't you give me
F C
Give me one last try
C
Try
[Instrumental]
