Capo 3

Chorus:
        D                            G 
Well, a man's gotta give up a lot to keep a woman satisfied
          D                                                   E7   A 
You gotta give 'em everything you've got or they'll kick you aside
   D                                              G
It don't take much they take 'em home with ye, it takes a whole lot to keep 'em there with ye
  D                         A                   D 
A man's gotta give 'em some ground to keep 'em around.


Turn everything around sideways try to look through a woman's eyes
And you'll find the whole world takes on a different view
Try to see mankind like a woman does you know what it takes to make a woman love
You know how to act when the woman comes back to you.
