        C
If you ever need to cry
                                     Am
I'll wipe the tears right from your eyes
    F
Oh yes, I will
              C
If you can't fall asleep at night
                        Am
I'll sing to you a lullaby
   F
Oh yes, I will

Chorus:
               C
Can I be your gentlemen?
                  Am
I'll be as gentle as I can.
 F
Girl, what will it take?
            C
To be your gentlemen.
                     Am       F
I swear I'll be the luckiest man.
                  C
If I can be your gentlemen.

I want to be the one you hug
When the world is just too much
Oh what you say?
I want to be the one you trust (trust)
I'll keep your secrets between us
Oh what you say?

Chorus

             D
Yeah, I will open every door for you
                           F
Because my lady should be first, awh yeah
               D
I'll throw my jacket over a puddle
                           G
Because my lady should be first, oooh yeah

So tell me baby possibly
That you might consider me?
Just say you will
And I love you humbly
I just pray that you believe
That I could be your gentleman
