TRY A LITTLE TENDERNESS - Otis Redding
Oh she may be weary
Those young girls, they do get weary

Wearing that same old shaggy dress b---3-1-0-|
But when she gets weary
You try a little tenderness
I know she's waiting
Just anticipating
The thing that you'll never, never possess no, no, no
But, while she's there waiting
Try just a little bit of tenderness
That's all you got to do
Bridge:
Now it's not just sentimental no
But she has her griefs and cares
But the soft words they are spoke so gentle, yeah, yeah, yeah
And it makes it easier, easier to bear
You won’t regret it, no no
Them young girls they don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness yeah, yeah, yeah
But it’s all so easy
all you got to do is try
Try a little tenderness
You've got to
Hold her
Squeeze her
Never leave her
Now get to her
Got got got to
Try a little tenderness
You've got to
Hold her
Don't squeeze her
Never leave her
You've got to (break)
Try a little tenderness
