Verse 1
(D major) It (G major) used to (C major) be a man's (G major) world,
but (C major) we didn't treat it right (G major)
It used to (C major) be a man's (G major) world,
but (A minor) all we did was fight (D major)
I'm glad (C major) it's finally in the hands of
(G major) the women (D major) an d the girls (C major)
I can't wait (A minor) to see what (D major) they do with
what's (C major) left (D major) of the world

Verse 2
(G major)
Ladies, (B minor) I'm sorry (E minor) ,
but (C major) we couldn't seem to learn (G major)
(C major) How to live in peace, (G major) so Rome (B minor) had to burn
And we cared (C major) about clean air (G major) ,
but there was (B minor) money to be made (E minor)
And (C major) breathing's nice,
but it don't (G major) compare with get (B minor) ting paid (C major) (D major)

Verse 4
(G major)
Please, (B minor) I beg your par (E minor) don,
but (C major) we got a bit confused
(G major) Some of our brothers (C major) thought our
(G major) sisters were born for (B minor) getting used
Then we (C major) made the assump (G major) tion
that's how (B minor) it should be done (E minor)
Then (C major) tried to excuse (G major) ourselves
in the name (B minor) of fun
Don't get me wrong, (C major)
hope ain't (G major) fully gone
Scores of de (C major) cent men built (D major) the
road I'm stand (G major) ing on
But a lot (F major) of it has crumbled
through prideful (E minor) mistakes
And ashes (F major) cover much of what the flood (D major) ing

I know (B minor) that we are giving (E minor) you
a (C major) lot to straighten out (G major)
The (C major) silver lining broke (G major) away
from the (B minor) thunder cloud
And it took (C major) us a few thou (G major) sand
years to make (B minor) a mess so fine (E minor)
I bet (A minor) y'all sort it out in less than (D major) half the time
Verse 6
It (G major) used to (C major) be a man's (G major) world,
ex (C major) cess in the extreme
(G major) Oh, it used to (C major) be a man's (G major) world,
but (A minor) we ran out of steam (D major)
We (C major) couldn't seem to reach the grace
that's born (G major) in (D major) every girl (C major)
Still, I hope (A minor) that I can lend (D major) a hand
in this (C major) new wo (D major) man's world (G major)
Let me know (A minor) if I can help (D major) out in this (C major) new
wo (D major) man's world
