Never been a ^Fwoman But I know the ^Cpain The pain of ^C7labor And the warpath of ^Fage I've been with so ^Bbmany And yet none have seen ^Fthrough Despite their ^Cintuition The extent of the ^Dmruse Oh, yeah, ^FI've never been a ^C7woman Why must I be^Ffriend each

And every ^Cgirl I meet the ^C7lively lit bars This dying dark ^Fworld I'm doped up on ^Bblaughter And they always obl^Fige This emptiness ^C7in me With wet glassy ey^Dmes Oh, yeah, I^Bb've never been a ^C7woman But they've given me my l^Fife

True love bears ^Fnothing In common with ^Cthis This constant am^C7usement Some ceaseless car^Fess Yet I accept n^Bbothing No price could be p^Faid The occasional m^C7iracle With Marissa or J^Dmane Oh, now, I^Bb've never been a w^C7oman

My time here is ^Fso brief I cannot pret^Cend That I can sust^C7ain you Like this till the e^Fnd Don't lie to the l^Bbadies It does not take ^Fwords All it takes is an ^Cinkling That you, they can ^Dmcure Oh, now, ^BbI've never been a ^C7woman That much is ^Fsure

Wandering ^Fhunger Honin' cor^Crupt Lays waiting each ^C7moment While you tend, while you selflessly ^Ftouch Satisfy and ^Bbsate her The only one in the room I^F can see Who is really being ple^C7asured is me, is me, is ^Dmme Oh, now, I^Bb've never been a ^C7woman But I have known p^Fain
