A Hug Works

[Intro ]
Bb C         A  G 

verse 1 
C 
I just stopped by to say hello 
C 
to show you care to let them know 
Am                       F 
but you can’t find the words to say 
C 
you stumble and you mumble and 
         G 
your tongue’s in the way 

Chorus 
        F           C              F           C 
But here’s a little secret that I’m happy to share 
     F          C              G 
another way to show that you really care 
       C                   F 
A hug works when nothing else will do 
       C                 F 
A hug works to help you make it through 
      Am       F 
A hug works I know that it’s true 
         C 
a hug works 

Am    G 

verse 2 
C 
Flowers smell nice a smile shows you care 
C 
balloons look cool but they can run out of air 
Am                                     F 
Cards bring a smile and candy tastes sweet 
C 
a text is cute but feels 
G 
incomplete 

Chorus 
        F            C               F        C 
But here’s a little secret that I’m happy to share 
     F          C             G 
another way to show that you really care 
       C                 F 
A hug works when nothing else will do 
        C               F 
A hug works to help you make it through 
        Am         F 
A hug works I know that it’s true 
          C 
a hug works 

Interlude 
Am    G 

Bridge 
        Am                      G 
We can hug with our arms we can hug with a smile 
        F                             G 
we can hug with kind words and every once in awhile 
        Am              F 
we can even hug with a song 
F                 G 
everybody sing along

   Am            F 
A hug works I know that it’s true 
    C                    F 
A hug works to help you make it through 
    C                       F 
A hug works when nothing else will do
