[Verse]

Em7                                A7
Let's stay a while and watch him 
 A7                Em7             A7
He's moving into action man 
       Em 7                       A7
He's looking good but maybe 
                 Em7              A7    
He's in the wrong direction man 


[Pre-Chorus]

                   Dmaj7
But he wanna get a little, get a little 
                    D7sus2/A
Every night, get a little, get a little 
D7                          G A Bm
Something for his appetite 
                          G A Bm            G A D
Everybody needs to have a     recreation 
D                         G       A       Bm   Bm7
Everybody needs a little comfort for the soul 


[Chorus]

[Verse]

Em7                              A7
He's cruising with the singles 
              Em7                A7
Down the margarita bar 
        Em7                      A7
He's boring to distraction 
                 Em7             A7
Pushing words and talking stars 


[Pre-Chorus]

(What's your sign) 
Dmaj7
He's gotta take a little, take a little 
                   D7sus2/A
On the side, make a little, make a little 
D7                          G A Bm
Something for his appetite 
Bm                        G A Bm          G A D
Everybody needs a little      lubrication 
D                         G       A       Bm    
Someone with imagination got to break the ice
