You can give, you can take

Em 
Darling, there was a time when I

Em 
C 
F#dim 
just lingered on
G 
C 
Every day, hoping you would change
G 
C 
your way and be mine at long
G 
C 
But you just don't care,
D 
G 
C 
even let me see you with your other man
F 
G 
C 
Without a conscience or a principle,
G 
C 
without respect or understanding
G 
D 
But yet the other night,
C 
you acted so surprised
G 
D 
When you saw me with another girl,
you couldn't
C 
believe your eyes
G 
D 
You started performing
C 
as if you loved me so
G 
D

When it was only your pride I  know

It don't taste so good
You can't you can't take
C

Oh, I'm glad I'm headed for a dive
C 
You can't take
G 
Oh, my darlin', my darlin',
C 
my darlin', my darlin'
D 
G 
C 
In spite of all that has gone down
D 
G 
Deep down inside, I really,
C 
I really, I really love you
D 
G 
C 
No sweeter love have I found
G 
C 
Oh, even though I love you so
G 
D 
C 
There's only so much that I can stand
G 
D 
If you don't want to see
C 
me with another girl
G 
Then you better get rid
D 
C 
of your other man now
Em 
Now there's no question
C 
about where you stand
Em 
C 
As long as you respect me as a man
D

All you gotta do,
