Handy Man
James Taylor
(O. Blackwell, J. Jones) 1959

[||: D A Bm :||]
Hey girls, gather round [D, A/C#]
Listen to what I'm putting down [Bm, A]
Hey babe, I'm your handy man [G A D, G A]

I'm not the kind to use a pencil or rule [D] 
I'm handy with love and I'm no fool [Bm]
I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can [G A G D, G D A]

If your broken heart should need repair [G G4 G]
Then I'm the man to see [A D]
I whisper sweet things, you tell all your friends [G G4 G]
They'll come runnin' to me [E7 A]

Here is the main thing I want to say [G A D, /c#]
I'm busy 24 hours a day [Bm /a]
I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can [G A G D, G A]

Come, come, come [D A Bm]
Yeah, yeah, yeah [D A Bm]
Come, come, come [D A Bm]
Yeah, yeah, yeah [D A Bm]
They'll come runnin' to me [E7 A]
[fade on D-A/C#-Bm progression]
That's me
I'm your handy man
