                         g a b C
 I guess I ran to Rhonda        for her sympathy 
  D                               
 Julie Ann does all she can
     C          D        G
 To take your chains off me 
  G
 Next in line comes Caroline 
      C
 She has your long black hair 
         D
 I can close my eyes and make believe 
       C       D      G
 That you are lying there 
  
             G                              C
 If I could put them all together I'd have you 
             G                        D
 But that's more than any mortal man can do 
          G                     C                   
 So I'm drawn to the neon lights and tortured by the truth 
             G              D               G
 If I could put them all together I'd have you 
 
 G C D C D G
 
     G                                C
 I thought that Mary Ann could keep me satisfied 
         D
 But your memory stares back at me 
       C      D     G
 As I look into her eyes 
       G                  C
 It's hard to be contented with all the rest 
              D
 When you've loved the perfect woman 
              C        D    G
 When you've held the very best 
 
 If I could put them all together I'd have you 
 But that's more than any mortal man can do 
 So I'm drawn to the neon lights and tortured by the truth 
             G              D               G   C
 If I could put them all together I'd have you 
             G              D               G   g  f# e G/D
 If I could put them all together I'd have you
