Take, Take, Take  The White Stripes



[G] I was s[A#]itting there in a c[F]omfortable chair and that was all that I [G]needed,
[G] Then my friend off[A#]ered me a d[F]rink for us to share and that was all that I [G]needed,
[F]Then I felt the ease,
But then I'm not too hard to please,
I guess you couldn't call me [G]greedy,
[G] Then I was s[A#]hocked to look up and see [F]Rita Hayworth there in a place so [G]seedy,
[G] She walked [A#]into the bar with her[F] long, red, curly hair and that was all that I[G] needed,
[F]Then I said to my friend,
‘Good God, we're lucky men,
Just to even see [G]her'

Take, take, take,
Take, take, take,
Take, take, take,
[G] I could [A#]not resist, I just h[F]ad to get close to her and that was all that I need[G]ed,
[G] I walked and l[A#]oomed around her t[F]able for a while and that was all that I need[G]ed,
[F]Then I said, ‘I hate to bug you ma'am,
But can I have your autograph?'
And that was all that I [G]needed
[G] She pressed her l[A#]ips against[F] a white piece of paper and that was all that I nee[G]ded,
[G] Then I saw[A#] what she wrote, m[F]y heart was in my mouth and that was all that I[G] needed,
[F]Then she handed it to me,
And I think she could see,
That that was all that I [G]needed,
[G] I started to[A#] walk away but then[F] I remembered Hey, I forgot to get a [G]picture,
[G] So I asked her o[A#]ne more time, ‘Could I[F] have another favour?' That was I all that I[G] needed.
[F]She was kind and posed with me,
Then I knew my friends would see,
My celebrity [G]meeting,

Take, take, take,
Take, take, take,
Take, take, take,
[G] And she s[A#]aid to me, ‘I[F] need to go to sleep' and it seemed so[G] mean,
[G] It's almost a[A#]s if she did [F]not appreciate how cool I was [G]being,
[F]She said, ‘Good night' and walked away,
And I didn't know what to say.
I just couldn't bel[G]ieve it.
[G] Well, it's just n[A#]ot fair, I want[F] to get a piece of hair and that was all[G] that I needed
[G] Well maybe a[A#] kiss on the cheek, I wouldn't[F] wash it for a week. That was all that I[G] needed
[F]Well she didn't even care,
That even there,
What a horrible f[G]eeling.
