Introduction:
C G C G
Way you look at me like that
A Em A Em
Something's got to give pretty soon
C G C G
Throw it on a camel's back
A Em A Em
Something's got to give pretty soon
C G C G
Living hard to chase the dream
A Em A Em
Way beyond our ways and means
C G C G
Yours don't mean a goddamn thing
A Em A Em
That's what you said, but, don't believe it
C G C G
That shattered look upon your face
A Em A Em
Something's got to give pretty soon
C G C G
Swallow, but can't stand the taste
A Em A Em
Bark at the wind, chase the moon
C G C G
Living fast and drinking lots
A Em A Em
List of things we haven't got
C G C G
Tired of life with the have-nots
A Em A Em
That's what you said and I believe it
C D
Maybe what you need's for someone to send you flowers
Em
Someone strong and mean who can prove he has the power to
C D
Show you more than charm and take you on your way
Em
To where you want to be at the end of the day
C D
And it breaks my heart in two to know it ain't meant to be
G
But, it ain't me... It ain't me
C G C G
And you say it's these things I do
A Em A Em
About me that's attracted you
C G C G
So if I started doing something else
A Em A Em
What would we have left
C G C G
And you say you just want compromise
A Em A Em
Then act so different all the time
C G C G
These reasons why you said goodbye
A Em A Em
Just another way of telling lies
C D
Something's got to give, got to give pretty soon
Em
Or else we're gonna lose the very things that made it bloom
C D
Sitting in silence in a cold and lonely room
Em
While the world goes on around us
C D
Something's got to give, got to give pretty soon
Em
Or else we're gonna hate each other
C D
And that would be the saddest thing I ever seen
