[Intro]
D F# x4 (organ)
D F#m* D F#m 
D A E

[Verse 1]
D                        F#m        A                      F#m
Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you, I'm still alright to smile
B7                            E
Girl, I think 'bout you every day now
D                        F#m      A                  F#m
Was a time when I wasn't sure, you set my mind at ease
B7                              E
There is no doubt you're in my heart now

[Chorus]
D            F#m*                    D                F#m
Said, woman, take it slow and it'll work itself out fine
D              A               E
All we need is just a little patience
D            F#m*                     D              F#m
Said, sugar, make it slow and we'll come together fine
D               A               E
All we need is just a little patience

[Verse 2]
D          F#m        A                F#m
I sit here on the stairs,  I'd rather be alone
   B7                           E
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait, dear
D           F#m       A                      F#m
Sometimes I get so tense,  I can't speed up the time
    B7                                        E
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider

[Chorus]
D            F#m*              D                   F#m
Said, woman, take it slow and things will be just fine
 D                 A            E
You and I'll just use a little patience
 D            F#m*                     D                F#m
Said, sugar, take the time 'cause the lights are shinin' bright
D                A                E
You and I've got what it takes to make it, ooh

[Instrumental]
D F#m* D F#m D A E

[Bridge]
D                     F#m
I've been walkin' the streets at night
A               F#m
Just tryin' to get it right
D                   F#m
Hard to see with so many around
     A                       F#m
You know I don't like bein' stuck in the crowd
        D                          A
An' the streets don't change, but maybe the names
F#m           A                         B7
I ain't got time for the game 'cause I need you
               D         E
Yeah-yeah, but I need you

[Chorus] 
D            F#m                    D               F#m 
Said, woman, take it slow and it'll work itself out fine
D              A             E 
All we need is just a little patience
D            F#m                    D             F#m 
Said, sugar, make it slow and we'll come together fine
D              A               E 
All we need is just a little patience

[Outro]
