Woman's
World (Difford/Tilbrook)
INTRO: E A E A B (2x)
E A C#m F#
E Asus2 E Asus2 Asus2/B
The crown of the kingdom is given to the woman
E Asus2 E Asus2 Asus2/B
The kingdom of the kitchen where she says she shouldn't
D Bm A A/B
There on the stainless steel her cigarettes and matches
C#m F#m E
Whistles to the radio to every hook she catches
F#m
But the frowns
C#7
Eider downs
Am
Tie her down
A E A C#m F#
But she likes to wear the crown of the kingdom
E Asus2 E Asus2 Asus2/B
She likes the recipes a touch of oriental
E Asus2 E Asus2 Asus2/B
Steaming up the windows burning egg on metal
D Bm A A/B
Sees in a catalogue a shiny new appliance
C#m F#m E
Another role swallowed by the wonders of science
F#m
Lobster hands
C#7
Omelette pans
Am
Understand
A E A C#m F#
How the crown can stick like jam in her kingdom
G#7 C#m
He's been so busy and she's been neglected
G#7 C#m G#
The problem is computed and always it's rejected
A A#dim
Out of her heart I catch a spark
B
And being smart
Cdim C#m F#m B
The crown is left out in the dark now there's no kingdom
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2 Bsus2/C#
Fed up with the glory she abdicates her title
F# Bsus2 F# Bsus2 Bsus2/C#
Sitting at a bar stool she gives her day's recital
E C#m
The family watch in horror
B C# D#m
As she staggers up the hallway
Makes herself a sandwich
G#m F#
As they're looking through the doorway
G#m
She goes to bed
D#7
Leg by leg
Bm
Nothing's said
B F# B D# G#
There's no crown upon her head there's no kingdom.
F# F#/E F#/D#
Press the button on the toaster
F#/D F#/C#
It's a woman's world
Ab7/C Abm7/B
Tuck the sheets in on the bed
F#/A# F#m/A
It's a woman's world
G#sus4
Take your apron from your holster
Gmaj7
It's a woman's world
F#
Shoot the crown off of your head
It's a woman's world.
F# B/E
It's a woman's world. (3x)
F# B/E hold
It's a woman's world.
F# F#/E F#/D#
Press the button on the toaster
F#/D F#/C#
It's a woman's world
Ab7/C Abm7/B
Tuck the sheets in on the bed
F#/A# F#m/A
It's a woman's world
G#sus4
Take your apron from your holster
Gmaj7
It's a woman's world
F#
Shoot the crown off of your head
It's a woman's world.
