(something's Got To) Give Pretty Soon

	  		(SOMETHING'S GOT TO) GIVE PRETTY SOON 




C               G              C    G 
Way you look at me like that 
                   A           Em      A   Em 
Something's got to give pretty soon 
C             G               C    G 
Throw it on a camel's back 
                   A           Em      A   Em 
Something's got to give pretty soon 
C              G                  C   G 
Living hard to chase the dream 
A              Em                A   Em 
Way beyond our ways and means 
C                  G                C    G 
Yours don't mean a goddamn thing 
                A     Em                A           Em 
That's what you said,      but, don't believe it 


     C               G               C    G 
That shattered look upon your face 
                   A           Em       A   Em 
Something's got to give pretty soon 
C                  G                  C   G 
Swallow, but can't stand the taste 
            A    Em                   A   Em 
Bark at the wind,    chase the moon 
C               G                 C    G 
Living fast and drinking lots 
A                 Em              A   Em 
List of things we haven't got 
C                  G                C   G 
Tired of life with the have-nots 
                A    Em                     A   Em 
That's what you said     and I believe it 


C                             D 
Maybe what you need's for someone to send you flowers 
Em 
Someone strong and mean who can prove he has the power to 
C                            D 
Show you more than charm and take you on your way 
Em 
To where you want to be at the end of the day 
       C                                 D 
And it breaks my heart in two to know it ain't meant to be 
              G 
But, it ain't me... It ain't me 


        C              G              C   G 
And you say it's these things I do 
 A                Em             A   Em 
About me that's attracted you 
   C            G                      C   G 
So if I started doing something else 
           A       Em       A   Em 
What would we have left 
        C                 G            C   G 
And you say you just want compromise 
     A                Em               A   Em 
Then act so different all the time 
      C               G               C   G 
These reasons why you said goodbye 
     A              Em              A   Em 
Just another way of telling lies 


C                               D 
Something's got to give, got to give pretty soon 
   Em 
Or else we're gonna lose the very things that made it bloom 
C                       D 
Sitting in silence in a cold and lonely room 
          Em 
While the world goes on around us 


C                               D 
Something's got to give, got to give pretty soon 
   Em 
Or else we're gonna hate each other 
    C                         D 
And that would be the saddest thing I ever seen 
Em
