"I've Gotta Get a Message to You"
by the Bee Gees: from the "Bee Gees:  Greatest Hits"
Covered by Moxy Fruvous on the album "You Will Go to the Moon"

Well, the [G] preacher turned to me
and he [Am] smiled.
He said, [D] "Come and walk with me,
come and [G] walk one more mile."

[G] Now, for once in your life, you're a-[Am]lone,
and you [C] ain't got a dime.
There's no [D] time for the phone.

[G] I told him I'm in no [Am] hurry,
and if [D] I broke her heart,
then please [G] tell her I'm sorry.
Now for once in my life I'm a-[Am]lone,
but I've [C] gotta let her know,
one more [D] time before I go.

CHORUS
I've just [G] gotta get a message to [Am] you.
Hold [C] on. [D] Hold on.
One more [G] hour and my life will be [Am] through.
Hold [C] On. [D] Hold on.

Well, I [G] laughed, but that didn't [Am] hurt,
and it's [D] only her love
that keeps me [G] wearing this smirk.
Now I'm crying, but deep down in-[Am]side,
I [C] did it to him, now it's [D] my turn to die.

I've just [G] gotta get a message to [Am] you.
Hold [C] on. [D] Hold on.
One more [G] hour and my life will be [Am] through.
Hold [C] On. [D] Hold on.

I've just [A] gotta get a message to [Bm] you.
Hold [D] on. [E] Hold on.
One more [A] hour and my life will be [Bm] through.
Hold [D] On. [E] Hold on.

Repeat to fade

(I think Moxy sings this in A and they jump to B at the key change.
The Bee Gees, I think, go from G to A)
