[Verse]

G
I'm gonna give my love to you

I'll show you what good love will do
   C                              Am
It all comes down to what you give
             G
Try a little tenderness

It'll open your heart up like a flower

Tenderness has got the power
   C                                Am
It all comes down to the way you live
             G
Try a little tenderness


[Chorus]

            Em
When you're down
            C
When you're weary
         G
When all hope is gone

And you can't go on
            D
When you're down
          C
Done with fighting
             G
Try a little tenderness


[Verse 2]

Continues after the ad
G
Everybody's always in such a rush

Everybody's caught up in the crush
     C
When all we really need
                Am
Is a human touch
             G
Try a little tenderness


[Chorus 2]

            Em
When you're down
            C
When you're weary
         G
When all hope is gone

And you can't go on
            D
When you're down
          C
Done with fighting
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
             G
Try a little tenderness


[Verse 3]

G
I'm gonna a give my love to you

And show you what your love will do
          C                                Am
If you're ready to give up on the human heart
             G
Try a little tenderness

I'm just tryin' to make it through everyday

And leave a little lovin' along the way
         C                               Am
Why does ev'rything have to be so damn hard
             G
Try a little tenderness


[Chorus 3]

            Em
When you're down
            C
When you're weary
         G
When all hope is gone

And you can't go on
            D
When you're down
          C
Done with fighting
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
             G         F
Try a little tenderness
             Em         F
Try a little tenderness
