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.
