How Lovely To Be A Woman Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
When you're a [C]skinny child of fourteen,
Wide with braces from ear to ear,
You [F]doubt that you [Fdim]could ever
[C]be appealing.
Then Halle[C#]lujah! You [C]are fifteen
And the braces disappear
And your skin [A]is smooth [C#]and [C]clear
And you [F#]have that happy grown-
[F#dim]up female feelin[C]g.[D]
How lovely to be a woman,
The wait was well worth while;
[G]How lovely to [D]wear mascara
And smile a woman's smile.
How lovely [A]to [C#]have a [F#m]fig ur[D]e,
[F#]That's [D]round inste[Gm]ad
[D]of flat;
Whenever you hear [Bb]boys [D]whistle,
You're what they're [E]whist[A]ling [D]at.
It's [G]wonder[D]ful to [C]feel
The way a [F]woman [Bb]feels;
It gives [A]you such a glow
[D]just to kno[A]w
You're wearing [B]lipstick [E]an [A]d heels!
How [D]lovely to be a woman
And have one [Eb]job to do;
To [C]pick out [D]a boy and [C]train [D]him
And [G]then when you [D]are [Bm]through,[D]
You've [G]made him the man
[Gm]you [Bb]want him to [D]be!
Life's [A]lovely when you're
a woman like [D]me!
How wonderful to [C]know
The things [Bb]a woman knows;
How [D]marvelous [A]to wait
[D]for a dat[G]e[A]
[F#m]In sim[B]ply beautiful[E] clothes!
[A]How lov[D]ely to be a woman
And change from boys [Eb]to men,[C]
To go to a [D]fancy nightclub
And stay out after [Bm]ten.[D]
How [G]lovely to be so [Bb]grown-
[D]up and free!
Life's lovely when [A]you're
a woman like me!
