Otis Redding - Try a little tenderness

G             Em
Oh she may be weary
      Am7              D
Those young girls they do get weary
G            F               E7    
Wearing that same old shaggy dress 
Am                   D    
But when she gets weary  
                       G/B  Gm/Bb Am D
You try a little tenderness

G            Em
I know she's waiting
Am7    D
Just anticipating
    G                 F              E7
The thing that you'll never never possess
             Am                D
no no no but while she's there waiting 
                               G    C  G  
Try just a little bit of tenderness
G7

Now it's not just          sentimental no

But she has her griefs and cares
C                C/D C/D#         B
But the soft words       they are spoke so gentle

       Am       Am/E       D
And it makes it easier to bear

Love is their whole happiness
