This is still incomplete, but I get so many requests for it that I'm making

it public anyway.

"We Gotta Get You A Woman"

(Todd Rundgren)

Intro (piano arr. for guitar):

v v v v v v v v

Verse 1:

[

C]

Le - roy, boy is that you?

I thought your post-hangin' days were through

Sunk-in eyes and full of sighs

Tell no lies you get wise

I tell you now we're gonna pull you through

There's only one thing left that we can do

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

this is close but not 100% correct

Chorus:

[voice these chords with C on top wherever possible:]

We gotta get you a woman

It's like nothin' else to make you feel sure you're alive

We gotta get you a woman

We better get walkin', we're wastin' time talkin' now

^^^^^^^^^^^

the 2nd and 3rd time

there are variants

of this which I

haven't done yet

Verse 2:

Leroy, boy, you're my friend

You say how and I'll say when

Come and meet me down the street

Take a seat, it's my treat

You may not ever get this chance again

That empty feeling's just about to end

[repeat chorus]

Bridge 1:

Talkin' 'bout life and what it means to you

It don't mean nothin' if it don't run through

I got one thing to say, you know it's true

Dm7/

[

C ...............]

You got to find some time to get this thing together

[repeat chorus]

Bridge 2:

Talkin' 'bout things about that special one

They may be stupid but they sure are fun

I'll give it to you while we're on the run

Dm7/

Because we ain't got time to get this thing together, 'cause we

Gm7/

[

F ........]

Got to get together with a woman who has been around

One who knows better than to let you down

Let's hope there's still one left in this whole town

Dm7/

And that she'll take some time to get this thing together 'cause

Dm7/

(Get this thing together 'cause)

Dm7/

Get this thing together 'cause

Coda:

Dm9/

[

A] [

G] [

G]

We gotta get you a woman

Dm9/

We gotta get you a woman

Dm9/

We gotta get you a woman

Dm7 [N.

And when we're through with you

We'll get me one too
