Waylon Jennings - The taker

He's a ^Dgiver an' he'll give her The kind of attention that ^A7she's never known An ' he's a ^A7helper an he'll help her To open the doors that she ^Dcan't on her own He's a ^Dlover and he'll love her In ways that ^D7she's never ^Gbeen loved before He's a ^A7getter an' he'll get her By ^A7getting her into the world she's been hungrying ^Dfor

He's a c^Dharmer an' he'll charm her With money and manners that ^A7I never learned An' he's a ^A7leader he'll lead her A^A7cross pretty bridges he's ^Dplanning to burn He's a ^Dtalker an' he'll talk her Right off of her ^D7feet but he ^Gwon't talk for long Cause he's a ^A7doer an' he'll do her The ^A7way that I'd never, damned if he won't do her ^Dwron^D7g

He's a ^Gtaker he'll take her to places An' ^Gmake her fly higher than she's ever ^A7dared to ^A7 He'll take his time before taking advantage ^A7 Taking her easy and s^Dlow ^D7 And ^Gafter he's taken the body and soul She ^Ggives him he'll take her for ^A7granted But he'll ^A7take off and leave her Takin' ^A7all of her pride when he ^Dgoes ^D7
