TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY BABY
written by Gerry Goffin/Carole King
performed by Bobby Vee
tab transcribed by Collins Crapo 

F            Dm
My tears are fallin'
              Bb         C7
'Cause you've taken her away
    F         Bb
And though it really hurts me so
                               C7
There's something that I gotta say:

F          Dm         Bb  C7
 Take good care of my   baby
F             Dm            Bb   C7  
 Please don't ever make her blue
F              Dm
 Just tell her that you love her
F                 Dm
 Make sure you're thinking of her
F        Dm                Bb C7
 In everything you say and do

Verse 2:
Take good care of my baby
Now don't you ever make her cry
Just let your love surround her
Make a rainbow all around her
F              Bb    C7     F
 Don't let her see a cloudy sky

Bb                     Dm
Once upon a time, that little girl was mine
F           Dm      Bb               C7
If I'd been true, I know she'd never be with you, so...

Verse 3:
Take good care of my baby
Be just as kind as you can be
And if you should discover
That you don't really love her
F             Dm        Bb   C7 F / / / Dm / / /
 Just send my baby back home to me

B / / / C#7 / / /
F#          D#m        B  C#7
  Take good care of my  baby
F#           D#m             B  C#7
  Be just as kind as you can be
F#           D#m
  And if you should discover
F#               D#m
  That you don't really love her
F#             D#m       B    C#7 F#
  Just send my baby back home to  me

F# / / / D#m / / / B / / / C#7 / / /
(me)
(repeat and fade):
F#          D#m        B  C#7
  Take good care of my  baby
