Verse 1:
Gm             A7            Dm
 You should be stronger than me,
Gm             A7          Dm
 You been here seven years longer than me.
Gm                      A7               Dm
 Don't you know you're 'sposed to be the man?
Gm               A7         Dm
 Not pale in com-parison to who you think I am.

                 Gm              A7        Dm
You always wanna talk it through;  I don't care!
                 Gm          A7          Dm
I always have to comfort you,   when I'm there.
           Gm                 A7         Dm
But that's what I need you to do; stroke my hair.

Chorus:
     F                     G 
'Cos I've forgotten all of young love's joy,
F                      G 
 Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy.

Verse 2:
Gm             A7            Dm
 You should be stronger than me,
Gm                  A7          Dm
 But instead you're longer than frozen turkey.
Gm                A7            Dm
 Why'd you always put me in con-trol?
Gm             A7            Dm
 All I need is for my man to live up to his role.

             Gm              A7       Dm
Always wanna talk it through;   I'm O-K.
               Gm          A7       Dm
Always have to comfort you,   every day.
           Gm                 A7          Dm
But that's what I need you to do; are you gay?

Chorus:
     F                     G 
'Cos I've forgotten all of young love's joy,

 Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy.

Verse 3:
          Gm            A7       Dm
He said; "the respect I made you earn,
Gm               A7      Dm
 Thought you had so many lessons to learn".
         Gm                  A7             Dm
I said; "you don't know what love is; get a grip!
Gm                   A7                Dm
 Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script".

              Gm               A7     Dm
I'm not gonna meet your mother,   any-time.
             Gm             A7     Dm
I just wanna grip your body,  over mine.
       Gm              A7             Dm
Please tell me why you think that's a crime.

Chorus:
     F                     G 
'Cos I've forgotten all of young love's joy,
F                      G 
 Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy.

 You should be stronger than me.

 You should be stronger than me.
