[Bb]
He's a giver, he'll give her the kind of attention [F] that she's never known.
He's a teacher, he'll teach her to open new doors [Bb] that she can't on her own.
He's a lover, and he'll love her in ways that she never [Eb] has been loved before.
[F] He's a getter, and he'll get her, like getting her into a world she's been all [Bb] hungry and poor.
He's a charmer, he'll charm her with money and manners [F] that I never learned.
He's a leader, he'll lead her across pretty bridges [Bb] he's planning to burn.
He's a talker, he'll talk her right off of the feet, [Eb] but he won't talk her long.
Cause [F] he's a doer, and he'll do her the way that I never would have damned if he won't [Bb] do her wrong.
Cause [Eb] he's a taker, he'll take her to places and make her fly higher than she's ever [F] dared to.
He'll take his time before taking advantage, taking her easy [Bb] and slow.
[Eb] And after he's taken the body and soul that she gives him, he'll take [F] her for granted.
Then he'll take off and leave her, taking all of her pride [Bb] as he goes.
Cause [Eb] he's a taker, he'll take her to places and make her fly higher than she's [F] ever dared to.
He'll take his time before taking advantage, taking her easy [Bb] and slow.
[Eb] And after he's taken the body and soul that she gives him, he'll take her [Bb] for [F] granted.
Then he'll take off and leave her, taking all of her [Bb] pride as he goes.
