The One
When A Woman Doesn't Want You
by: Elton John and Bernie Taupin
Intro: G - Em/C - Bm7 - C - C/D
G Em/C
She may be lost
Bm7
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 Em/C
But in her woman's way
Bm7
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 C D
Oh well the choice is hers
chorus:
G Bm
`Cause you can't take a woman
C G
When she doesn't want you
C G/B
And you can't be a man
D D D/E D/F#
If you're blind to reason
G Bm7
Man might be strong
C A7/C#
But true love is stronger
C G/B
You gotta play it straight
Am D Eb
When a woman doesn't want you
G Em/C
Her voice invites
Bm7
Her eyes say more than words
C G/B
But her needs and complications
Em G/D C G/B Am D
Can tear away the memory of last night's girl
G Em/C
And if you're weak
Bm7
Yeah we're all weak sometime
C G/B
The best things can wait
Em G/D
The best times they come
C G/B C C/D
Oh when strength is kind
G G/F
C/E
And if you can't read her
G G/F
Leave her alone
C/E
And if you don't know by now
Am
She's not someone's prize
A D
And you can't take her home
