#1.
Dmaj7                                  Aaug7
Don't make the mistake of thinking old fashioned.
                        F#m
Times have changed from yesterday.
Dmaj7                           Aaug7
No longer will those old double standards..
                   F#m
be accepted by the women of today.
F#m          Dmaj7                   
So, when you think you're foolin' her..she just 
C#m7
might be foolin' you.
          G                 D
Remember..if you can do it, she can, too.

CHORUS:
           Dmaj7                      C#m7   F#m
Because, a woman needs love just like you do..

don't kid yourself into thinking that she don't.

She can fool around just like you do, oh.
Dmaj7                       D          E
Unless you give her all the lovin' she wants.

#2.
Dmaj7                         Aaug7
When her eyes are begging for affection..
                         F#m
don't put her off, don't make her wait.
    Dmaj7                                Aaug7
And don't try to give her that worn out excuse..
                      F#m
about being tired and working late.
            Dmaj7                    C#m7       G
I tell you..one day you'll come home early from work..
                              D
open up the door and get your feelings hurt.

             G                      D
up the hill..somebody else had been lovin' Jill?

She can fool around just like you do, oh.
           Dmaj7                          D        E
You better take out some insurance and be sure she won't.

#3.
              Dmaj7       C#m7 F#m                    Dmaj7
