[Verse 1]
Em                  Am
I only wanted to be closer to you

D    F#5         G
I thought I had something to prove

Am        Bm          C       Em
Instead I fled with my superstition

Am          D      G

[Verse 2]

[tab]Em                        Am
Now I was a poet since before I could speak

D       F#5          G
A man's emotions are what make him weak

Am        Bm                C
I come to you more or less a humble man

Am          D      G
Because you are a woman
[Chorus 1]
G     Bm    Am
And I find most of the time

D    F#7    G      Em
I'm lost inside my own mind

Am       Bm       C
I look all over, all over to find

Am       D         Em
It don't keep me satisfied
[Verse 3]
Em                Am
All the conquest that I construe

D     F#5          G
Fail miserably in front of you

Am                Bm            C  D/F#   F#   F#5
Have you ever been loved by such a charismatic fool

D         F#5        Em
And I'm a circle for your love
[Verse 4]
Em                                  Am
The self sin and struggle crowd the sidewalk

D        F#5               G
Parading pose with phones and paper cups

Am            Bm         C             Em
You walk like truth to a world of fiction

Am          D      G
Because you are a woman
[Chorus 2]
G     Bm    Am
And I find most of the time

D      F#7   G      Em
It's all inside my mind

Am         Bm        C
I look all over, all over to find

Am       D            G
It don't keep me satisfied, yeah
[Instrumental] G Bm Am Am D D G Em Am Bm C C Am D G G [Chorus 3]
G     Bm    Am
And I find most of the time

D          F#7           G        Em
I miss the way your body coils round mine

Am            Bm             C
Slope of your shoulders, the curve of your spine

Am         D       Em
Because you are a woman
[Verse 5]
Em                             Am
I change my strings and pack my suitcase

D            F#5             G
I'm always leaving for some other place

Am       Bm         C         Em
But I return to you again and again

Am          D      G
Because you are a woman

Am          D      G
Because you are a woman
