Tell her about it - Billy Joel (G) (1983) Tell her about it T -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Intro: G(4) F(2) - C(2) | G(4) F(2) - C(2)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Vers 1:

G | F C

Listen boy, I don't want to see you let a good thing slip away,

G | F C

you know I don't like watching anybody make the same mistakes I made,

Bm A# Am

she's a real nice girl and she's always there for you,

Cm G Am D

but a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do. ...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Vers 2:

G | F C

Listen boy, I'm sure that you think you got it all under control,

G | F C

you don't want somebody telling you the way to stay in someone's soul,

Bm A# Am

you're a big boy now and you'll never let her go,

Cm G Am G - A

but that's just the kind of thing she ought to know ...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus 1: D F#m

Tell her about it, tell her ev'rything you feel,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

give her every reason to accept that you're for real,

D F#m

tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

let her know you need her, let her know how much she means,

G(4) F(2) - C(2) | G(4) F(2) - C(2)

uh-huu, uh-huu.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Vers 3:

G | F C

Listen boy, it's not automatically a certain guarantee,

G | F C

to insure yourself, you've got to provide communication constantly,

Bm A# Am

when you love someone, you're always insecure,

Cm G Am G - A

and there's only one good way to reassure.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus 2: D F#m

Tell her about it, let her know how much you care,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

when she can't be with you, tell her you wish you were there,

D F#m

tell her about it, every day before you leave,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

pay her some attention, give her something to believe.

Bridge: [slow strumming]

F(2) Dm(2) Gm(4)

'cause now and then she'll get to worrying,

A# C Dm

just because you haven't spoken for so long,

F Dm Gm

and though you may not have done anything,

A# C D7

will that be a consolation when she's gone.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Vers 3:

G | F C

Listen boy, it's good information from a man who's made mistakes,

G | F

just a word or two that she gets from you could be the difference that

C

it makes,

Bm A# Am

she's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you,

Cm G Am G - A

but a girl like that won't tell you what you should do.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus 1: D F#m

Tell her about it, tell her ev'rything you feel,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

give her every reason to accept that you're for real,

D F#m

tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams,

Bm Bm7 Em7 A7

let her know you need her, let her know how much she means,

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Outro:

G(4) F(2) C(2)

tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now,

tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long,

tell her about it, tell her now and you won't go wrong,

tell her about it, before it gets too late, you got to,

tell her about it, ... ...

tell her about it, ... ...
