C                     G7    F                   C
He knows when I'm lonesome  he's there when I'm sad

F                   C      F                G7
He's up in the good times  he's down in the bad

F               G7        F                     C
Whenever I'm discouraged  he knows just what to do

F        G7                 C
The boy  doesn't know about you


                  G7        F                     C
I can tell him my troubles  he makes 'em all seem right

F             C        F                  G7
I can make up excuses  not to hold him at night

F              G7        F                              C
We can talk of tomorrow  I tell him things that I wanna do

F        G7                       C
But boy  how can I tell him about you


F         G7             C
How can I tell him about you 

F          G7              C
Boy please tell me what to do

F                G7     C                 Am  G7
Everything seems right  whenever I'm with yo--u

F                G7       F      G7       C         G7   F       G7
So boy won't you tell me  how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh


C                          G7        F            C
How can I tell him I don't miss him  whenever I’m away

F                  C               F                      G7
How can I say it's you I think of  every single night and day

F              G7    F                     C
But when is it easy  telling someone we're through

F       G7                     C
Oh boy  help me tell him about you


F         G7             C
How can I tell him about you 

F          G7              C
Boy please tell me what to do

F                G7     C                 Am  G7
Everything seems right  whenever I'm with yo--u

F                G7       F      G7       C         G7   F       G7
So boy won't you tell me  how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh
