[Chorus]
C                 Bb
Won't you give me something

F                 C
[tab]C                    Bb
This whole world has taken

F              C
Taken me for a ride
[Verse 1]
         C                           Bb                    C
You come smiling through the doorway looking like an old regret

         C                        Bb               C
Still a whole lot better than you did last time we met

         C                        Bb               C
Between a real hard spot and a hole in a concrete wall

C                      Bb                      C
Running out of highway looking for a place to fall
[Chorus]
C                 Bb
Won't you give me something

F                 C
Something to hold on to

C                    Bb
This whole world has taken

F              C
Taken me for a ride

C              Bb
Pick me up and learn me

F                C
Turn me down and burn me

C                 Bb
Darling won't you give me

F                C
Give me one last try
[Verse 2]
        C                             Bb            C
Well to tell you true I thought we'd never be here again

       C                Bb                       C
Gonna feel alright now darling for the shape I'm in

       C                    Bb                        C
Nearly fell to pieces just thinking it would all fall through

       C                        Bb               C
Feeling like somebody when you finally came into view
[Chorus]
C                 Bb
Darling won't you give me something

F                 C
Something to hold on to

C                Bb
This whole world has taken

F              C
Taken me for a ride

C              Bb
Pick me up and learn me

F                C
Turn me down and burn me

C                 Bb
Darling won't you give me

F                C
Give me one last try
[Instrumental] C Bb F C x4 [Verse 3]
      C                 Bb                C
Now I won't say it all worked out like I planned

C                   Bb              C
Lucky I still got a leg on which to stand

C       C       C        Bb  C
I had a half of mind to get gone

C          C       C      Bb  C
Leave it a little try to move on

C                     Bb                      C
But I just sat there staring at the secondhand

C
On the barroom wall now
[Chorus]
C                 Bb
Darling won't you give me something

F            C
Something to hold on to

C                    Bb
This whole world has taken

F              C
Taken me for a ride

C              Bb
Pick me up and learn me

F                C
Turn me down and burn me

C                 Bb
Darling won't you give me

F                C
Give me one last try

C
Try
[Instrumental] C Bb F C (repeating, fades out)
