D
He's a giver, he'll give her
                           A
The kind of attention that she's never known
A
He's a teacher, he'll teach her
                           D
To open the doors that she can't on her own
D
He's a lover, he'll love her
                                G
in ways that she never has been loved before
           A
And he's a getter, he'll get her
                                                  D
By gettin her into the world she's been hungerin' for
D
He's a charmer, and he'll charm her
                            A
With money and manners that I never learned

He's a leader, and he'll lead her
                           D
Across pretty bridges he's planning to burn
D
He's a talker, he'll talk her
                             G
Right of of her feet, but he won't talk for long
             A
Cause he's a doer, and he'll do her

The way that I never
                             D
And damned if he won't do her wrong
            G
And he's a taker, he'll take her
                                                   A
To places and make her fly higher than she's ever dared to

He'll take his time before takin' advantage
                    D
Takin' her easy and slow
G
And after he's taken her body and soul
                                       A
That she gives him, he'll take her for granted

Then he'll take off and leave her
                              D
Takin' all of her pride as he goes
