D/F# Em7 A

Just shower the people you love with love

Em7 A

Show them the way that you feel

Em7 A7 A#dim7 Bm F#dim7

Things are gonna work out fine if you only will

Em7 A

Shower the people you love with love

Em7 A

Show them the way that you feel

Em7 A A#dim7 Bm

Things are gonna be much better if you only will [C G]

VERSE 2: - Same chord progression as first verse.

--------

You can run but you cannot hide;

this is widely known

And what you plan to do with your foolish pride

when you're all by yourself alone

Once you tell somebody the way that you feel

you can feel it beginning to ease

I think it's true what they say about the squeaky wheel

always getting the grease.
