[Intro] G Cmaj7/E Bm7 C Em7/C C [Verse 1]
G         Cmaj7/E                   Bm7
 She may be lost, she may be out of bounds

C                       G/B             Em
 All her tenderness and charms could be something

  G/D      C  G/B            Am7 Am7/D
A man like me has never found

G                      Cmaj7/E                         Bm7
 But in her woman's way,      she's still a little girl

C                    G/B        Em              G/D
 The things that she wants, the things that she needs

C            G/B       Am7 Am7/D
Oh, well the choice is hers
[Chorus]
           G            Bm   C                  G
'Cause you can't take a woman, when she doesn't want you

C                   G/B           D        D/E G/F#
 And you can't be a man if you're blind to rea-son

G             Bm7   C                  A7
 Man might be strong, but true love is stronger

          C       G/B              Am    D            Eb
You gotta play it straight, when a woman doesn't want you
[Verse 2]
G           Cmaj7/E                        Bm7
 Her voice invites, her eyes say more than words

C                        G/B
 But her needs and complications

          Em      G/D    C  G/B          Am7 Am7/D
Can tear away the memory of last night's girl

G             Cmaj7/E                         Bm7
 And if you're weak, yeah, we're all weak sometime

C                    G/B
 The best things can wait

    Em              G/D   C       G/B         Am7 Am7/D
The best times they come, oh when strength is kind
[Chorus]
           G            Bm   C                  G
'Cause you can't take a woman, when she doesn't want you

C                   G/B           D        D/E G/F#
 And you can't be a man if you're blind to rea-son

G             Bm7   C                  A7
 Man might be strong, but true love is stronger

          C       G/B              Am    D            Eb
You gotta play it straight, when a woman doesn't want you
[Bridge]
G F                 C/E      G           G   F
   And if you can't read her, leave her alone

                 C/E
And if you don't know by now

      Am                  A                      D
She's not someone's prize and you can't take her home, oh
[Chorus]
           G            Bm   C                  G
'Cause you can't take a woman, when she doesn't want you

C                   G/B           D        D/E G/F#
 And you can't be a man if you're blind to rea-son

G             Bm7   C                  A7
 Man might be strong, but true love is stronger

          C       G/B           C             G/B
You gotta play it straight. You gotta play it straight

          C       G/B              Am    D            Eb F G
You gotta play it straight, when a woman doesn't want you
