Written by: Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb

Tuning: Standard

The recording is somewhere between B and C. I chose the key of C here as
it is much easier to play.

[Intro]
 Gm               Gm               Am               Dm      Dm    Am
|1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |

     G            Am    Bb    F    
|1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + |
                                              [Don’t know ...]

[Verse]
           C          Fm/C                C
Don't know why I'm surviving every lonely day
             G/C          F/C
When there's got to be no chance for me
              C          Fm/C                 C
My life would end and it doesn't matter how I cry
   G/C                 F/C                 G/C     
My tears of love are a waste of time, if I turn away


[Bridge]
     F                       Dm
Am I strong enough to see it through
   F                    Dm  F/G
Go crazy is what I will do


[Chorus]
                    Am       G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah 
     Am                      G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah

[Verse]
          C         Fm/C                 C
Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try
  G/C            F/C       G/C     
I gave it all so easily to you my love


[Bridge]
   F                           Dm
To dreams that never will come true
     F                       Dm
Am I strong enough to see it through
   F                    Dm  F/G
Go crazy is what I will do


[Chorus]
                    Am       G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah 
     Am                      G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah

[Chorus]
     Am                      G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah 
     Am                      G
If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby
     Em                   Am
If I can't have you ah ah ah – ah
