[Verse 1]
        C           G
In this world where people
    F                  C
Are fighting with each other
C
And there's no one you can count on
C   A#            F
Not even your own brother


[Pre-Chorus]
      C              E7
So if someone comes along
          F            G#
And gives you genuine affection


[Chorus]
C                   A#  F
Get it while you can
C                   A#  F
Get it while you can


[Verse 2]
         C        G
When you love somebody
F                           C
You're taking the chance on sorrow
C
And who knows, baby?
C          A#        F
We may not be here tomorrow


[Pre-Chorus]
      C              E7
So if someone comes along
          F              G#
And gives you genuine protection


[Chorus]
           C                     A#               F
You better get it while you can (Get it while you can)
C                     A#               F
Get it while you can (Get it while you can)
C
Get it while you can
G                        Am
 Don't turn your back on love
A#(b5)  A#                Am
  Don't turn your back on love
A#(b5)  A#                F   A#(b5)  A#
  Don't turn your back on love
C      E7
Yeah,  yeah
Am   A#(b5)  A#
Hey, hey


[Verse 3]
       C          G
Once I had a good woman
F                      C
But I did not count my blessings
C
Wish she could hear me now
C    A#               F
I've learned a better lesson


[Pre-Chorus]
      C              E7
So if someone comes along
          F            G#
And gives you genuine affection


[Chorus]
C                     A#               F
Get it while you can (Get it while you can)
C                     A#               F
Get it while you can (Get it while you can)
           C
You better get it while you can
G                       Am
Don't turn your back on love
F    F
Hey, hey
C                     A#               F
Get it while you can (Get it while you can)
C                     A#               F
Get it while you can (Get it while you can)
           C
You better get it while you can
G                       Am
Don't turn your back on love
F    F
Ooh, ooh
