             F
Never been a woman

               C
But I know the pain

            C7
The pain of labor

                   F
And the warpath of age

                  Bb
I've been with so many

                       F
And yet none have seen through

              C
Despite their intuition

                  Dm
The extent of the ruse

          F                 C7
Oh, yeah, I've never been a woman

             F
Why must I befriend each

          C
And every girl

           C7
I meet the lively lit bars

                F
This dying dark world

                Bb
I'm doped up on laughter

                   F
And they always oblige

               C7
This emptiness in me

                  Dm
With wet glassy eyes

           Bb               C7
Oh, yeah, I've never been a woman

                         F
But they've given me my life

                F
True love bears nothing

               C
In common with this

                C7
This constant amusement

                  F
Some ceaseless caress

              Bb
Yet I accept nothing

                   F
No price could be paid

                C7
The occasional miracle

                 Dm
With Marissa or Jane

          Bb                C7
Oh, now, I've never been a woman

                F
My time here is so brief

             C
I cannot pretend

               C7
That I can sustain you

                    F
Like this till the end

                  Bb
Don't lie to the ladies

                 F
It does not take words

                   C
All it takes is an inkling

                   Dm
That you, they can cure

         Bb                C7
Oh, now, I've never been a woman

             F
That much is sure

          F
Wandering hunger

          C
Honin' corrupt

                  C7
Lays waiting each moment

                                     F
While you tend, while you selflessly touch

            Bb
Satisfy and sate her

                          F
The only one in the room I can see

                       C7                      Dm
Who is really being pleasured is me, is me, is me

          Bb               C7
Oh, now, I've never been a woman

                  F
But I have known pain
