D   G6       D9 
Maybe he's not much  
Em7     Edim  A7   Em7   Gdim    F#7 
Just another man, doing what he can 
  E7/9    E7/13  E7  A7/13 A7 A7/13 A7  A7/13  A7 F#7 B7 
But what does she care when a woman   loves a man 
D             G6     D9 
She'll just string along 
Em7        Edim      A7  Em7       Gdim      F#7 
All through thick and thin till his ship comes in 
E7/9     E7/13 E7 A7/13 A7 A7/13 A7  A7/13 A7  D G D 
That's how it goes when  a  woman  loves a man 
Bridge 
D    D7M      F#7       Gdim           F#7      Gdim 
She'll be the first one to praise him when he's goin' strong 
 B7         Cdim        B7         B7/F# 
The last one to blame him when ev'rything is wrong 
E7        B7       E7       Cdim 
It's such a one-sided game that they play 
  Gdim    Cdim       A7  
But women are funny that way 
D      G6       D9 
Tell her she's a fool, 
 Em7      Edim     A7   Em7   Gdim     F#7 
She'll say yes, I know, but I love him so 
E7/9     E7/13 E7 A7/13 A7 A7/13 A7  A7/13 A7  D G D 
That's how it goes when  a  woman  loves a man
