Lyrics

Ain’t no (Bb)way for me to (C7)love you (Abmaj7)if you won’t let me. It ain’t no (Bb)way for me to give (C7)you all you need if (F9)you won’t let me give all of me. I know that a (Bb)wom an’s du ty is to help and love a man. And that’s the (Ab)way it was (Eb)planned. Oh, but how can I, how can I, how can I give you all the (C7)things I can (F)if you’re (F7)ty ing both of my (Ab6)hands? Oh, it ain’t no (Eb)way. (Ain’t no way.) It ain’t no way. (Ain’t no way.) It just ain’t no way, ba by. (Ain’t no way.) Ain’t no way, ba by. (Ain’t no way.) It ain’t (Bbm)no way for me to love you if you (Abmaj7)won’t (Eb)let me. Stop try’n’ to (Bb)be some one you’re not. How cold and cruel is a man who paid too much for what he got? And if you (Bb)need me like you say, say (Cm)you do, oh, then (F9)please, please, please; don’t you know that (Ab)I need (Bb7)you? Oh. Ain’t no way. I tell you that it (Eb7)ain’t no way, it ain’t no way, it ain’t no way, ba by. Just ain’t no way, it sure ain’t no way. It ain’t no (Bbm)way for me to love you if (Abmaj7)you won’t (Ebmaj7)let me. (Ebmaj7)let me.
