FIRST NOTE = THIRD STRING PLAYING G CHORD – VERY SLOWLY
[G] You keep me waiting till it’s getting aggravating, you’re a [Am] slow [D7] poke. [Am] I wait and worry, but you [D7] never seem to hurry, you’re a [G] slow poke.
[G7] Time means nothing to you, I [Cm] wait and then; [A] Late again, [D7] eight o’clock, [Am] nine o’clock, quarter to ten [D7]
[G] Why should I linger every time you snap your finger, little [Am] slow [D7] poke? [Am] Why can’t you hasten when you [D7] see the time’s a-wastin’, ’re a [G] slow poke, [G7] Dear.
[END CHORUS] – – – – – [C] Why should I keep [Cm] trying to change you ? [G] It’s not the thing to [Em] do. I [Am] guess I’ll have to learn to be a [D] slow [D7] poke [G] too.
REPEAT: [END CHORUS] – – – – –
