Capo III *
My tears are falling
'cause you've taken her away
and though it really hurts me so
there's something that I've got to say
Take good care of my, baby
please don't ever make her blue
just tell her that you love her
make sure you're thinking of her
in everything you say and do 
Take good care of my, baby
now don't you ever make her cry 
just let your love surround her
make a rainbow all around her
don't let her see a cloudy sky 
Once upon a time
that little girl was mine
If I'd been true
I know she'd never be with you
So, take good care of my, baby
Be just as kind as you can be 
And if you should discover
that you don't really love her
Just send my baby back
home to me
(key change)
So, take good care of my, baby
Be just as kind as you can be 
And if you should discover
that you don't really love her
Just send my baby back
Ab Bb Eb (Eb Cm Ab Bb)
home to me
So, take good care of my, baby 3x
