The White Stripes - Take, Take, Take    (Album: Get Behind Me Satan (2005))

G       Bb                     F

  I was sittin' there, I had a comfortable chair

                          G

  And that was all that I needed

G                Bb           F

  Then my friend offered me a drink for us to share

                          G

  And that was all that I needed

        Bb5    C5      Bb5                     D5      F5'     D5

  Well, then I felt at ease;   But then, I'm not too hard to please

              F5`     (F#5)    G

  I guess you couldn't call me greedy

And I was shocked to look up and see Rita Hayworth there       

In a place so seedy                                              

She walked into the bar with her long red curly hair             

And that was all that I needed

And I said to my friend

"Good God we're lucky men;      Well, to just even see her"

CHORUS:

(Played 2x):

1   +   2   +   3   +   4   +   1   +   2   +   3   +   4   +   1   +   2   +   3   +   4

G5          G5  G5          Bb5 Bb5 F5  F5          Bb5 Bb5 F5  F5              Bb5 Bb5 F5

G5, G5 , Bb5, Bb5, F5, F5,    Bb5, Bb5, F5, F5,    Bb5, Bb5, F5, G5

                      Take,                take,               take!    (x3)

Yeah, I could not resist, I just had to get close to her

And that was all that I needed

I walked and loomed around her table for a while

And that was all that I needed

Then I said, "I hate to bug you, Ma'am

But can I have your autograph?";         And that was all that I needed

She pressed her lips against a white piece of paper

And that was all that I needed

Then I saw what she wrote, my heart is in my mouth

And that was all that I needed

Then she handed it to me

And I think that she could see;  That that was all that I needed

I started to walk away, but then I remembered, hey

I forgot to get a picture

So I asked her one more time, could I have another favor

That was all that I needed

She was kind to pose with me

Then I know my friends would see;  My celebrity meeting

[CHORUS]

She turned and said to me, "I need to go to sleep"

And it seemed so mean

It's almost as if she did not appreciate

How cool I was being

She said, "Goodnight" and walked away

And I didn't know what to say;  I just couldn't believe it

Well it's just not fair, I wanted to get a piece of hair

And that was all that I needed

Or maybe a kiss on the cheek, I wouldn't wash it for a week

That would be all that I needed

But she didn't even care

That I was even there;  What a horrible feeling
