[Verse 1]
            C
I try to discover
                      G
A little something to make me sweeter
            E7
Oh, baby, refrain
                 F
From breaking my heart
          C
I'm so in love with you
           G
I'll be forever blue
                    F
That you give me no reason
                  Am             G
Why you make a me work so hard


[Pre-Chorus]
G
That you give me no


[Chorus]
C                Am
Soul, I hear you calling
          F                        Em   F  G (C)
Oh, baby, please, give a little respect to    me

[Verse 2]
                C
And if I should falter
                    G
Would you open your arms out to me?
                      E7
We can make love, not war
                           F
And live at peace with our hearts
          C
I'm so in love with you
           G
I'll be forever blue
                 F
What religion or reason
                        Am                G
Could drive a man to forsake his lover?


[Pre-Chorus]
G
Don't you tell me no


[Chorus]
C                Am
Soul, I hear you calling
          F                        Em   F  G (C)
Oh, baby, please, give a little respect to    me

[Verse 3 Reprise]
          C
I'm so in love with you
           G
I'll be forever blue
                    F
That you give me no reason
                       Am             G
You know you make a me work so hard


[Pre-Chorus]
G
That you give me no


[Chorus]
C                Am
Soul, I hear you calling
          F                        Em   F  G (C)
Oh, baby, please, give a little respect to    me
