Just Take Me Status Quo
(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,
If you'd j[C]ust t[C#]ake [D]me, just take [E]me now,
H-H-H-H-A-E H-H-H-H-A-E (2 times)
If you'd just take me.
Verse 2:
[B]Never seen my daddy[A-E], di[B]ed when I was t[A-E]wo,
[B]Mamma did the best she c[A-E]ould[B] taught me all she[A-E] knew.
[B]Said that love was [A-E]ever[B]ything, tears c[A-E]ame to her eyes,
[B]Never know the meaning, n[A-E]ow I[B] realise
Love is [C]all y[C#]ou n[D]eed, all you n[E]eed 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.
J[C]ust t[C#]ake m[D]e, just take m[E]e now,
H-H-H-H-A-E H-H-H-H-A-H
Won't you just take me.
