A Hymn To Him chords and lyrics - HUBERT GREGG

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Well, women are irrational,
that's all there is to that.
Their heads are full of cotton,
hay and rags.
They're nothing but exasperating,
irritating, vacillating, calculating, agitating,
maddening and infuriating hags.
Yes, why can't a woman
be more like a man?
Men are so honest,
so thoroughly square,
[G]eternally noble, historically fair.
Who, [D]when you win,
will always give your back a pat.
[A]Why can[D]'t a woman be like[A] that?[D]
Why does everyone do what the others do?
[G]Can't a woman learn to use
her [Eb]head?
[D]Why do they do [G]everything
their mothers do?
Why don't they [Em]grow up
like [D]their father instead?
Why can't a woman take after a man?
Men are so pleasant,
so easy to please.
Whenever you're [G]with them,
you're always [Em]at ease.
Would you be [D]slighted
if I didn't speak for hours?
course not.
Would you be livid if
I had a drink or two?
Nonsense.
Would you be [G]wounded
if I never sent you [D]flowers?
Never.
Well, why can't a woman be
like you?
[G]One man in a million may shout a bit.
And now and then
there's one with slight
de[Eb]fects.
[D]One, perhaps,
whose [G]truthfulness you doubt a bit.
[D]But by and [Em]large, [D]we are above [G]sex.
[D]Why can't a woman behave like a man?
Men are so friendly,
good -natured and kind.
A better [G]companion you never will [Em]find.
If I were hours late for dinner,
would you [D]bellow?
Of course not.
If I for[Em]got your silly [D]birthday,
would you fuss?
Nonsense.
Would you com[C]plain
if I [G]took out another [D]fellow?
Never.
Why can't a woman [A]be like [D]us?
Mrs. Pearce,
you're a woman.
Why can't a woman be more like a man?
Men are so decent,
such regular chaps.
Ready to [G]help you through any
mis[Em]haps.
[D]Ready to [G]buck you up [D]whenev
er you [A]are glum.
Why can't a woman be a [D]chum?
[G]Why is think[D]ing something
women [G]never do?
Wise logic [D]never even [Eb]tried
Straighten[D]ing up their hair is
all [G]they ever do
[C]Why don't [Em]they straighten [D]up
the [A]mess that's [D]inside?
Why can't a woman be more like a man?
If I were a woman who'd been to a ball
Been hailed as a [G]princess
by one and by [Em]all
Would I start weeping
like [A]a bathtub [D]overflowing?
Carry [C]on as if my [D]home were in a tree?
Would I run [G]off
and never [D]tell me where I'm going?
Oh, I got a woman!
[A]Be [D]like me!
