Something's Gotta Give
Words & Music by Johnny Mercer
Recorded by The McGuire Sisters, 1955 (#5)
[D6] [E7]
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give,
[D9] [A] [Edim] [E7]
Something's gotta give!
[D] [B7] [Cdim] [A6] [A] [Asus4] [A]
When an ir - re - sis - ti - ble force, such as you,
[D9] [BbM7] [Bm7]-5 [E7] [E7]/6 [E7] [A]
Meets an old im - mov - a - ble ob - ject like me,
[Bm] [Bm7/E] [F#m] [F#m7]
You can bet as sure as you live,
[D6] [E7]
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give,
[D9] [A] [Edim] [E7]
Something's gotta give!
[D] [B7] [Cdim] [A6] [A] [Asus4] [A]
When an ir - re - pres - si - ble smile, such as yours,
[D9] [BbM7] [Bm7]-5 [E7] [E7]/6 [E7] [A]
Warms an old im - plac - a - ble heart, such as mine,
[Bm] [Bm7/E] [F#m] [F#m7]
Don't say no because I insist.
[D6] [Fdim] [E7] [D9] [A]
Somewhere, somehow, someone's gonna be kissed.
Bridge:
[A7] [Em7] [A7] [Em7] [Cdim] [D] [Fdim] [D]
So en garde who knows what the fates have in store
[F#] [F#7] [F#m] [Bm]
From their vast mysterious sky?
[B7] [D9] [Bm7]-5 [E]
I'll try hard ignoring those lips I adore
[F#7] [B7] [E7]
But how long can anyone try?
[D] [B7] [Cdim] [A6] [A] [Asus4] [A]
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight it with all of our might,
[D9] [BbM7] [Bm7]-5 [D9] [E7]/6 [E7] [A]
Chances are some heav - en - ly star span - gled night
[Bm] [Bm7/E] [F#m] [F#m7]
We'll find out as sure as we live
[D6] [E7]
Something's gotta give, something's gotta give,
[D9] [A] [D9] [A]
Something's gotta give!
