[Verse 1]
Bb Ab Eb
Listen boy, I don't want to see you let a good thing slip away
Bb Ab Eb
You know I don't like watching anybody make the same mistakes I made
Dm7 Db Cm7
She's a real nice girl and she's always there for you
Ebm Bb/D Cm7 F
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
[Verse 2]
Bb Ab Eb
Oh, listen boy, I'm sure that you think you got it all under control
Bb Ab Eb
You don't want somebody telling you the way to stay in someone's soul
Dm7 Db Cm7
You're a big boy now and you'll never let her go
Ebm Bb/D Cm7BbC
|
But that's just the kind of thing she ought to know
[Chorus 1]
F Am
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm7/C C
Give her every reason to accept that you're for reee - aaal
F Am
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm7/C C
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she meee - ans
[Interlude]

Ohoo
[Verse 2]
Bb Ab Eb
Listen, boy, it's not automatically a certain guarantee
Bb Ab Eb
To insure yourself, you've got to provide communication constantly
Dm7 Db Cm7
When you love someone you're always insecure
Ebm Bb/D Cm BbC
|
And there's only one good way to reassure
[Chorus 2]
F Am
Tell her about it, let her know how much you care
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm/C C
When she can't be with you, tell her you wish you were thee - ere
F Am
Tell her about it, every day before you leave
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm7/C C
Pay her some attention, give her something to belie - eve
[Bridge]
Ab Fm7 Gb
'Cause now and then she'll get to worrying
Ab Bbm Eb F EbAb
|
Just because you haven't spoken for so long
Fm7 Gb
And though you may not have done anything
Ab Bbm Eb Em F7
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
[Verse 3]
Bb Ab Eb
Listen boy, it's good information from a man who's made mistakes
Bb Ab Eb
Just a word or two that she gets from you could be the difference that it makes
Dm7 Db Cm7
She's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you
Ebm Bb/D Cm BbC
|
But a girl like that won't tell you what you should do
[Chorus 3]
F Am
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm7/C C
Give her every reason to accept that you're for reee - aaal
F Am
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Dm Dm/C Gm7 Gm7/C C
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she meee - ans
[Coda]
Bb Gm7 Ab Eb
Tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now
Bb Gm Ab Eb
Just tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long
Bb Gm Ab Eb
You got to tell her about it, tell her now and you won't go wrong
Bb Gm Ab Eb
You got to tell her about it before it gets too late
Bb Gm Ab Eb
You got to tell her about it, you know the girl don't want to wait
Bb Gm Ab Eb
You got to tell her about it, you've got to tell, tell, tell her about it
