Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][F][C]
[G][G][F][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Listen boy
I don't want to see you let a [F]good thing
Slip a[C]way
You know I [G]don't like watching
Anybody make the [F]same mistakes
I [C]made
She's a [Bm]real nice girl
And she's [Bb]always there for [Am]you
But a [Cm]nice girl wouldn't [Bm]tell you
what you should [Am]do[D]

[Verse 2]
Oh [G]listen boy
I'm sure that you think you got it [F]all
Under [C]control
You don't [G]want somebody telling you
The way to [F]stay in someone's [C]soul
You're a [Bm]big boy now
And you'll [Bb]never let her [Am]go
But that's [Cm]just the kind of [Bm]thing
She ought to [Am]know[G][A]

[Chorus 1]
[D]Tell her about it
Tell her [F#m]e verything you feel
[Bm]Give her every [D]reason to ac[Em]cept
That you're for [A]real
[D]Tell her about it
Tell her [F#m]all your crazy dreams
[Bm]Let her know you n[D]eed her
Let her [Em]know how much she [A]means

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][F][C]
[G][G][F][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Listen boy
It's not automatically a [F]certain guaran[C]tee
To in[G]sure yourself
You've got to provide
communi[F]cation constant[C]ly
When you [Bm]love someone
You're [Bb]always inse[Am]cure
And there's [Cm]only one good [Bm]way
To reas[Am]sure[G][A]

[Chorus 2]
[D]Tell her about it
Let her [F#m]know how much you care
[Bm]When she can't be [D]with you
Tell her [Em]you wish you were t[A]here
[D]Tell her about it
Every [F#m]day before you leave
[Bm]Pay her some att[D]ention
Give her [Em]something to be[A]lieve[G]

[Bridge 1]
[F]'Cause now and the[Dm]n
She'll get to [Eb]wor rying
[F]Just [Gm]because you haven't [C]spoken
For so [D]long[C]
[F]Though you may[Dm] not have done a n[Eb]ything
[F]Will that be [Gm]a consolati[C]on
when [A]she's [D]gone

[Verse 4]
[G]Listen boy
It's good information from a [F]man
Who's made [C]mistakes
Just a [G]word or two
that she gets from you
Could be the [F]difference that it [C]makes
She's a [Bm]trusting soul
She's [Bb]put her trust in y[Am]ou
But a [Cm]girl like that won't [Bm]tell you
What you should [Am]do[G][A]

[Chorus 3]
[D]Tell her about it
Tell her [F#m]e verything you feel
[Bm]Give her every [D]reason to ac[Em]cept
That you're for [A]real
[D]Tell her about it
Tell her [F#m]all your crazy dreams
[Bm]Let her know you n[D]eed her
Let her [Em]know how much she [A]means

[Outro 1]
[G]Tell her [Em]about it
[F]Tell her how you [C]feel right now
Just [G]tell her [Em]about it
The [F]girl don't want to [C]wait too long
You got to [G]tell her [Em]about it
[F]Tell her now and you [C]won't go wrong
You got to [G]tell her [Em]about it
Be[F]fore it gets too [C]late
You got to [G]tell her [Em]about it
You know the [F]girl don't want
To [C]wait, you got to
[G]Tell her [Em]about it
You've got to [F]tell, tell, [C]tell her about it
[Fade out]
