************* THE TAKER *************

written by Kris Kristofferson & Shel Shilverstein
performed by Kris Kristofferson.

Capo on the 1st fret.


Verse 1:
A
He's a giver,he'll give her
E7
The kind of attention that she's never known

He's a helper,he'll help her
A
To open the doors that she can't on her own

He's a lover,he'll love her
D
In ways that she never has been loved before
E7
And he's a getter,he'll get her
A
By gettin' her into the world she's been hungerin' for


Verse 2:
A
He's a charmer,and he'll charm her
E7
With money and manners that i never learned

He's a leader,and he'll lead her
A
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn

He's a talker,he'll talk her
D
Right of her feet,but he won't talk for long
E7
Cause he's a doer,and he'll do her

The way that i never
A
And damned if he won't do her wrong



Chorus:
D
And he's s taker,he'll take her
E7
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to

He'll take this time before takin' advantage
A
Takin' her easy and slow
D
And after he's taken her body and soul
E7
That she gives him,he'll take her for granted

Then he'll take off and leave her
A
Takin' all of her pride as he goes


Chorus.
