Verse 1:

[D-F-A-C]

Le - roy, boy is that you?

I thought your post-hangin' days were through

Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs

Tell no lies you get wise

I tell you now we're gonna pull you through

There's only one thing left that we can do

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

this is close but not 100% correct

[voice these chords with C on top wherever possible:]

We gotta get you a woman

It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive

We gotta get you a woman

We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now

^^^^^^^^^^^

the 2nd and 3rd time

there are variants

of this which I

haven't done yet

Verse 2:

Leroy, boy, you're my friend

You say how and I'll say when

Come and meet me down the street

Take a seat, it's my treat

You may not ever get this chance again

That empty feeling's just about to end

Bridge 1:

Talkin' 'bout life and what it means to you

It don't mean nothin' if it don't run through

I got one thing to say, you know it's true

[D-F-A-C ...............]

You got to find some time to get this thing together

Bridge 2:

Talkin' 'bout things about that special one

They may be stupid but they sure are fun

I'll give it to you while we're on the run

Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause we

[G-Bb-D-F ........]

Got to get together with a woman who has been around

One who knows better than to let you down

Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town

And that she'll take some time to get this thing together 'cause

(Get this thing together 'cause)

Get this thing together 'cause

Coda:

[C-E-F-A] [B-C-E-G] [A-C-E-G]

We gotta get you a woman

We gotta get you a woman

We gotta get you a woman

Dm7 [N.C.]

And when we're through with you

We'll get me one too
