*Released 1966*
Intro:
[Caug]
Verse 1:
[Gm] [C7]
If you want, something to play with,
[F] [Fmaj7] [F6]
Go and find yourself a toy.
[D7/F#] [Gm] [C7]
Baby, my time is too ex-pensive,
[F] [Fmaj7] [F6] [F]
And I'm not, a little boy.
Chorus 1:
[Am] [Dm]
If you are serious,
[Am] [Dm]
Don't play with my heart, it makes me furious.
[Am] [Bb]
But if you want me to love you,
[C7] [Gm7] [C7]
Then baby I will, girl you know I will...
Verse 2:
[Gm]
Tell it like it is,
[C7] [F] [Fmaj7] [F6]
Don't be a-shamed to let your conscience be your guide. But I...
[D7/F#] [Gm] [C7]
Know deep down in-side of me, I believe you love me;
[F] [Fmaj7] [F6] [F]
Forget your... foolish pride.
Chorus 2:
[Am] [Dm]
Life is too short to have sorrow,
[Am] [Dm]
We may be here today and gone to-morrow.
[Am] [Bb]
You might as well get what you want,
[C7] [Gm7] [C7]
So go on and live, baby go on and live...
Verse 3:
[C7] [Gm] [C7]
Tell it like it is,
[Gm7] [C7] [F] [Fmaj7] [F6]
I'm nothing to play with; go and find yourself a toy. But I...
[D7/F#] [C7]
Tell it like it is,
[Gm] [C7] [F] [Fmaj7] [F6]
My time is too ex-pensive, and I'm not your little boy.
[D7/F#] [C7]
Tell it like it is...
