[Verse 1]
[Am]Come on in
On her way to work one morning
Down the path alongside the lake
[D]A t[Am]ender -hearted woman saw
[D]A p[E]oor, half -frozen snake
[Am]His pretty colored skin
had [D]been [Am]all frosted with the dew
[D]One[Am] thing she cried, I'll take you in
And [E]I'll take care [Am]of you
Take me in, tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman
[E]Beside the[Am] snake,
she wrapped him all cozy
in a comforter of silk
And laid him by her fireside
with [E]some honey and some milk
[Am]She hurried home from work that night
as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake
she'd taken [E]to had been revived
[Am]Take me in, tender woman,
take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman,
[E]for [Am]silence' [Bbm]sake
She clutched him to her bosom,
you're so beautiful, she cried
[Db]But [Bbm]if I hadn't brought you in,
by [E#m]now you might have died
She [Bbm]spoke his pretty skin again,
kissed and held him tight
Instead of saying thanks,
that snake [F]gave her a vicious [Bbm]bite
Take me in, tender woman,
take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender [E#]woman,
side to [A#m]side[Bm]
I'll say goodbye, the woman,
and you've been with me but why
You know your bite is poisonous
and [F#]now I'm [F#m]gonna [F#]die
[Bm]Shut up, silly woman,
sitting on the rooftop with the wind
[E]You knew [Bm]damn well I was a snake
[F#]before you took me [Bm]in
Take me in, tender woman,
take me in for heaven's sake
Take me in, tender woman,
[F#]silent snake[Bm]
[F#]He's [Bm]the s[F#]nake, that's the s[Bm]nake
Si[F#]lence, [Bm]come on in
[F#]He's [Bm]that [F#]snake
[Bm]Come on in, [F#]come [Bm]on in
[F#]Come [Bm]on in, [F#]come [Bm]on in you
