[Intro]
D
You had better hold on,

G                      D
hold on to what you've got

D
You had better hold on,

G                      A    A7
hold on to what you've got

             D            D7
Cause if you think nobody wants it

                G                Gm
Just throw it a-way and you will see

             D                       A7    N.C. D
Someone will have it, before you can count, 1-2-3

         G              D     A
Yes they will, yes they will
[Verse 1]
         D
You know son, it's not all the time

       D
That a man can have a good woman

  D
A woman he can call his very own

G
  And a woman who will stay right there at home

    D
And mind the children while he's gone to work

  D
A woman who will have his dinner cooked when he comes home

      D
Where some men make mistakes is

D                           G
  When they go out and stay   because they feel

                  A                       A7
That no other man wants his woman but him    But listen
[Chorus]
N.C.   D             D7
If you think, nobody wants her

                 G                 Gm
Just throw her a-way, and you will see

              D                        A7 N.C.    D
Some one will have her, before you can count, 1-2-3

       G            D     A
Yes he will, yes he will
[Verse 2]
                 D
You know, Possum,  I've got a little something for the women too

                      D
Because you know I've seen so many women

                               G
Who've had so many good men in life

                    G
Men who would stand by them through thick and thin

D
  Men who'd go to work everyday

                     D
And bring home their hard earned paycheck

D
Men who'd give their woman anything

                                  D7
That their little hearts desired

                             G
Where most women make the mistakes is when they'd stay out at night and play

A                                       A7
  Because they felt that no other woman wanted him but her   Now you listen
[Chorus]
N.C.   D             D7
If you think, nobody wants him

                 G                 Gm
Just throw him a-way, and you will see

             D                        A7 N.C.    D
Some girl'll have him, before you can count, 1-2-3

        G             D     A
Yes she will, yes she will
[Outro]
D         G             D
  Yes she will, yes she will
