    A woman needs love (just like you do... hoo) 
D7+                          C#m7              F#m 
    Don't kid yourself into (thinkin' that she don't) 
    D7+                            C#m7      F#m 
    She can fool around (just like you do... hoo) 
D7+                               D           E

                                    A7+ 
    Of thinkin' old fashioned (ooh, ooh) 
                            F#m 
    Times have changed from yesterday 
D7+ 
    No longer will 
                                     A7+ 
    Those old double standards (ooh, ooh) 
                       F#m 
    Be accepted by the women of today 
 
                 D7+ 
    So when you think you're foolin' her 
             C#m7 
    She just might be foolin' you 
             G                      D   D/E 
    Remember,  if you can do it... she  can too 
 
              D7+                         C#m7      F#m 
    Because a woman needs love (just like you do... hey) 
D7+                          C#m7              F#m 
    Don't kid yourself into (thinkin' that she don't) 
    D7+                            C#m7      F#m 
    She can fool around (just like you do... hoo) 
D7+                               D           E 
    Unless you give her all the (lovin' she wants) 
  
D7+ 
    When her eyes 
                                    A7+ 
    Are beggin' for affection (ooh, ooh) 
                             F#m 
    Don't put her off, don't make her wait 
D7+  
    Don't try to give her 
                               A7+ 
    That worn out excuse (ooh, ooh) 
                           F#m 
    About being tired and workin' late
