On Her Way To Being A Woman Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Little girl from Calabasas
Grown on cornbread and molasses
in the [F#]lonely times
[D]Mother died when she was four
Father walked right out the door
[C]And found his future wait[Bm]ing
in a bottle [A]of wine

[Verse 2]
[D]Though she wasn't beautiful,
being plain was plentiful
[F#]With smiles to give away
[D]Growing up was hard to do
In her hand- me- downs
and worn- out shoes
[C]She walked by on her [G]way
to be a [A]wo man

[Verse 3]
[G]She walked by on her way
to be a [D]woman
Lonely [Em]today and yesterday
[A]Whe[G]n wil[D]l lov[Em]e come her way[A]?
[G]She walked by on her way to be a [D]woman,
whoa- oh
[A]

[Verse 4]
She [D]wasn't good as a carpenter,
a hole in the roof bothered her
When the [F#]wind and rain were men blew in
So [D]she went and call a man,
that was when her love began
[C]She walked by on her
[Bm]way to be a [A]woman

[Verse 5]
[G]She walked by on her way
to be a [D]woman
Happy [Em]today and yesterday
[A]Lov[G]e cam[D]e in [Em]to st[A]ay
[G]She walked by on her way to be a [D]woman,
whoa- oh
[A][Bb]

[Verse 6]
[Eb]They were married a year or so
He'd carpenter, she would sew
[G]Provided for their baby girl
[Eb]They would wait and watch her grow
'Til the time they would know
[Db]She walked by on her w[Cm]ay to be a w[Bb]oman

[Verse 7]
[Ab]She walked by on her way
to be a [Eb]woman, woman
[Bb]She [Ab]walked by on her way to be a woman[Eb],
[Bb]woman
[Ab]She walked by on her way to be a w[Eb]o man,
[Bb]woman
[Ab]She walked by on...
