Traveling Wilburys 1988 (George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan) ** https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handle_with_Care_(song) [Intro] D C G G 2x [Verse 1]
D         C      G
Been beat up and battered 'round,

D         C            G
been sent up, and I've been shot down

C                          G         Em
You're the best thing that I've ever found;

C       D       G
 handle me with care
[Verse 2]
D     C     G
Reputations changeable,

D   C      G
situations tolerable

C                 G   Em
But baby, you're adorable;

C               D       
 handle me with care
[Bridge]
G      B7*      C     D
I'm so tired of being lonely,

G       B7        C       D
I still have some love to give

G         B7      C        D      G
Won't you show me that you really care?
[Chorus]
     C                        G
Everybody's, got somebody, to lean on

         C                       D
Put your body, next to mine, and dream on
[Verse 3]
D                C             G
I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled,

D         C          G
I've been robbed and ridiculed

C                       G     Em
In day care centers and night schools;

C       D       G
 handle me with care
[Guitar Solo] D C G G 2x [Verse 4]
D             C         G
Been stuck in airports, terrorized,

D       C         G
sent to meetings, hypnotized

C               G          Em
Overexposed, commercialized;

C               D       
 handle me with care
[Bridge]
G      B7       C     D
I'm so tired of being lonely,

G       B7        C       D
I still have some love to give

G         B7      C        D      G
Won't you show me that you really care
[Chorus]
     C                        G
Everybody's, got somebody, to lean on

         C                       D
Put your body, next to mine, and dream on
[Verse 5]
     D      C         G
I've been uptight and made a mess,

    D             C    G
but I'll clean it up myself, I guess

C             G           Em
Oh, the sweet smell of success;

C       D       G
 handle me with care
