Just Take Me
(Lancaster-Parfitt)
Verse 1:
I am just a poor man, got nowhere to go,
All my leaves have fallen and left me all alone.
If I were a rich man, if I were a king,
I would give you all I have, I'd give you everything,
C C# D E
If you'd just take me, just take me now,
H-H-H-H-A-E H-H-H-H-A-E (2 times)
If you'd just take me.
Verse 2:
H A-E H A-E
Never seen my daddy, died when I was two,
H A-E H A-E
Mamma did the best she could taught me all she knew.
H A-E H A-E
Said that love was everything, tears came to her eyes,
H A-E H
Never know the meaning, now I realise
C C# D E
Love is all you need, all you need now
H-H-H-H-A-E H-H-H-H-A-E (2 times)
If you just take me.

Verse 3:
I'm trying hard to get you, I'm not the only one,
I've never had a big car, but I'm not on the run.
If love has got a meaning, see it in my eyes,
If you see the beginning, then you'll realise.
Love is all you need, all you need now
If you just take me.
C C# D E
Just take me, just take me now,
H-H-H-H-A-E H-H-H-H-A-H
Won't you just take me.
