Listen boy, I don't want to see you [Ab] let a good thing slip away.
[Bb] You know I don't like watching anybody make [Ab] the same mistakes I [Eb] make.
She's [Dm] a real nice girl and [Db] she's always there [Cm] for you.
But [Ebm] a nice girl wouldn't [Bb] tell you what you [Cm] should do.
[Bb] Oh listen boy, I'm sure that you think you [Ab] got it all under control.
[Bb] You don't want somebody [Gm] telling you the [Ab] way to stay in [Eb] someone's soul.
[Dm] You're a big boy now [Db] and you'll never let her [Cm] go.
[Ebm] That's just the kind [Dm] of thing she ought [Cm] to know.
[Bb]
[F] [Dm] Tell her about it, [Am] tell her everything you feel.
[Dm] Give her [F] every reason [Gm] to accept that [C] you're for real.
[F] Tell her [Dm] about it, [Am] tell her all your crazy dreams.
[Dm] Let her know [F] you need her, [Gm] let her know how much [Bb] you mean.
[Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] Listen boy, it's not [Ab] automatically certain [Eb] guaranteed.
[Bb] To ensure yourself you've got to [Ab] provide communication [Eb] constantly.
[Dm] When you love [Db] someone you're always [Cm] insecure.
[Ebm] And there's only [Dm] one good way to [Cm] reassure.
[Bb]
[F] Tell her about it, [Am] let her know how much you care.
[Dm] When she [F] can't be with you [Gm] tell her you wish [C] you were there.
[F] Tell [Dm] her about it, [Am] every day before you leave.
[Dm] Pay her [F] some attention, [Gm] give her something to [Bb] believe.
[Ab] Cause [Fm] now and then she'll [Gb] get to worrying.
[Bb] Just because you [Eb] haven't spoken for [F] so long.
[Ab] [Fm] Though you may not [Gb] have done anything.
[Bb] Will that be a [Eb] consolation [Em] when she's [F] gone?
[Bb] Listen boy, it's good [Ab] information from a man who's [Eb] made mistakes.
[Bb] Just the word or two that she gets from [Ab] you could be the difference [Eb] that it makes.
[Dm] She's a trusting [Db] soul, she's put her [Cm] trust in you.
[Ebm] But a girl like [Dm] that won't tell you what [Cm] you should [Bb] do.
[F] Tell [Dm] her about it, [Am] tell her everything you feel.
[Dm] Give her [C] every reason [Gm] to accept that you're for real.
[F] Tell her about it, [Am] tell her all your crazy dreams.
