Oh, men don't notice what they got,

                       G        D

                                C7      C

One thousand ways to please your man, oh oh,

                         G       D

Not even one requires a plan, I know.

                            C7       C

And countless odd religions too,

                             G       D

Woah, I'll be waiting for you baby,

 G    B     D             C

                 'cos I'm through.

        Am     C    Dsus2  D

Sit me down,

        G      B    D      C

Shut me up,

        Am     C    Dsus2  D

I'll calm down,

     G         B    D         C

And I'll get along with you.
