She may be weary, women do get weary
7 -8 7 6 -6 6 5
Wearing the same shabby dress.
5 -4 5 -4 4
And when she's weary,
-4 5 -5 6 -6 -3 6
try a little tenderness.
Verse 2
You know she's waiting, just anticipating
Things she may never possess.
While she's without them, try a little tenderness.
4 -6 -6 6 -6 -7-7
It's not just sentimental
7 7 7 7 7 5
She has her grief and cares.
-4 5 -5 -5 5 -5 -6 -6
And a word that's soft and gently
-4 5 -5 6-6 7 -4
Makes it easier to bear.
Verse 3
You won't regret it, women don't forget it.
Love is their whole happiness.
It's all so easy, try a little tenderness.
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
