A                A                     G
You're asking the wrong question to the wrong person
         G                 A
And it's hurting you to listen
           A
I wanna be truthful
                 G
But you gotta be certain
        G
This is what you mean


[Pre-chorus]
     A              Em
Ah Henry, would you look at me?
    G                        D
You cannot have it all and I will not make it easy
  A            Em                 G
Henry, I'm not grateful for small mercies
   D
No matter how light the purse is


[Chorus]
A       G           D
All the things you need
                         A G D
Don't mean a thing to me
     A       G         D
It's not the air I breathe
                         A  G
It's not the thing, Henry


[Verse 2]
     A                A             G
Am I taking the wrong meaning in concluding
         G                    A
That the error is of your choosing
                 A
You've got to be simple
                         G
If you think that you're moving
              G
More than the ire in me


[Pre-chorus]
     A              Em
Ah Henry, would you look at me?
    G                        D
You cannot have it all and I will not make it easy
  A            Em                 G
Henry, I'm not grateful for small mercies
   D
No matter how light the purse is


[Chorus]
A       G           D
All the things you need
                         A G D
Don't mean a thing to me
     A       G         D
It's not the air I breathe
                         A G D
It's not the thing, Henry


[Chorus]
    A       G           D
Oh, all the things you need
                         A G D
Don't mean a thing to me
     A       G         D
It's not the air I breathe
                         A G D
It's not the thing, Henry


[Solo]
A G A G


[Pre-chorus]
  A              Em
Henry, would you look at me?
    G                        D
You cannot have it all and I will not make it easy
  A            Em                 G
Henry, I'm not grateful for small mercies
   D                             A A
No matter how light the purse is


[Outro to fade]
     G G
Henry, Henry
A                   A                           G G
All the things you need don't mean a thing to me
     A                 A                             G G
It's not the air I breathe, it's not the thing, Henry
