CG7FC
He knows when I'm lonesome he's there when I'm sad
FCFG7
He's up in the good times he's down in the bad
FG7FC
Whenever I'm discouraged he knows just what to do
FG7C
The boy doesn't know about you
G7FC
I can tell him my troubles he makes 'em all seem right
FCFG7
I can make up excuses not to hold him at night
FG7FC
We can talk of tomorrow I tell him things that I wanna do
FG7C
But boy how can I tell him about you
FG7C
How can I tell him about you
FG7C
Boy please tell me what to do
FG7CAmG7
Everything seems right whenever I'm with yo--u
FG7FG7CG7FG7
So boy won't you tell me how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh
CG7FC
How can I tell him I don't miss him whenever I’m away
FCFG7
How can I say it's you I think of every single night and day
FG7FC
But when is it easy telling someone we're through
FG7C
Oh boy help me tell him about you
FG7C
How can I tell him about you
FG7C
Boy please tell me what to do
FG7CAmG7
Everything seems right whenever I'm with yo--u

So boy won't you tell me how to tell him about you a--h a--h o--oh
