I checked them against a recording and made a few minor corrections, mainly in the number of "yeahs" and "las"—if that matters to anybody.


POETRY MAN
Phoebe Snow

Ooooo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooooo, yeah
You make me laugh
'Cause your eyes they light the night
They look right through me, la, la, la, la
You bashful boy
You're hiding something sweet
Please give it to me, yeah, to me, yeah, to me
Ooh, oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things all right, yeah, yeah

Ooooo, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooooo, yeah
You are a genie
All I ask for is your smile
Each time I rub the lamp, la, la, la, la
When I am with you
I have a giggling teen-age crush
Then I'm a sultry vamp, yeah, yeah, a sultry vamp
Talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things all right, yeah, yeah

Oooooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oooooh, yeah

---- musical interlude ----

Talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things all right
Ooooo, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooooo, yeah

So once again
It's time to say so long
And so recall the call of life, la, la, la, la
You're goin' home now
Home's that place somewhere you go each day
To see your wife, yeah, yeah, yeah
To see your wife
Wooo, oooh

Talk to me some more
You know that you don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things all right, yeah
Wooo, oooh

Talk to me some more
You know that you don't have to go
You're the Poetry Man
You make things all right

ctually I have the lyrics, but would really appreciate some kind, clever soul providing chords, along with any relevant tuning variations (sounds like dropped D or summat...)

Thanks!
