[Verse 1]
D                                                 A7
When I see those big brown eyes is when I take my cue

A7                                                  D
It don't take me but a few minutes to get a message through

D                                            A7
I talk to you, you talk to me we talk to one another
[Chorus]
N.C.                            A7                 D
It don't take but a few minutes to understand each other

D                                                   A7
If I was twenty-three years old and you were twenty-two

A7                                                   D
I bet no one would try to run our lives the way they do

D                                          A7
take a chance, try romance, be true to one another
[Chorus]
N.C.                             A7                D
It don't take but a few minutes, when we want each other
Intro Riff x 2 @3:34 D A7 D D A7 D [Verse 3]
D                                               A7
If I was in San Diego and you were in Portland, Maine

A7                                                      D
I'd fly to you lock, stock and board in hail and pouring rain

D                                                            A7
Over the mountains, through the valleys, coming home to each other
[Chorus]
N.C.                               A7                 D
It don't take us but a few minutes to get to one another

D                                              A7
You would write a love song and play on my guitar

A7                                              D
And if you should, in Hollywood, become a movie star

D                                                     A7
Would you let your heart forget, I loved you and you only
[Chorus]
N.C.                             A7                  D
It don't take but a few minutes, when you're feeling lonely

A7                                               D
It don't take but a few minutes to get a message through

D                                                    A7
I talk to you, and you talk to me and we talk to one another
