Please, Mister, Please:Olivia Newton-John.
#1 in 1975.
             (Capo 3rd fret.)

#1.
D
In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox..
                                        Em A
with the best of country music, old and new.
                       A7               A
You can hear your five selections for a quarter..
                    A7                   D
and somebody else's songs when yours are through.
D
I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter..
                         D7               G
and my friends around to help me ease the pain.
                                          D
Til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song..
    Em             A           D
and here I am just missing you again.

CHORUS:
D                                  Em   A
Please, Mr., please, don't play B..Seventeen.
       Em               A                  G   D
It was our song, it was his song, but it's o...ver.
D                           Em          A
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean..
        Em           A              D
I don't ever want to hear that song again.

#2.
D
If I had a dime for every time I held you.
                                                Em A
Though you're far away, you've been so close to me.
                         A7              A
I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville..
                  A7             D
maybe even in the state of Tennessee.
D
But I guess I'd better get myself together.
                                          D7     G
Cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind.
G                                          D
Just a note that said 'I'm sorry,' by your picture..
      Em                   A           D
and a song that's weighing heavy on my mind.

CHORUS:
D                                  Em   A
Please, Mr., please, don't play B..Seventeen.
       Em               A                  G   D
It was our song, it was his song, but it's o...ver.
D                           Em          A
Please, Mr., please, if you know what I mean..
        Em           A              D
I don't ever want to hear that song again.
