Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
Women [C]you see are different from men.
They look marvelous when they're young,
but then when a woman achieves
her matron station,
there begins a certain process of,
well, [Dm]deterioration.
Now, [C]just a minute, let me finish.
It's a well -known fact
that a man is more attractive
the older that he grows.
He's like a [G]late October [C]rose.[Dm]
[G]He's noticed every[Am]where [D]he goes.
[Dm]It's[G] the stran[C]gest thing,
but a man is more distin[F]guished
as [C]time starts sliding by.
Although [G]I really don't
[A]know [D]why,
[G]I couldn't c[Am]hange it i[D]f
I [G]tried.
Unfortunate, [A]may[F]be,[Dm]
[F]but [Em]changeable, it's [Am]not.[C]
[G]Men [Em]of 4[G]0 go to town,
[E]women[Am] go t[D]o pot.[Dm]
[C]It's a well -known fact
that a man is more attractive.
With each [F]passing year,
he gets more and more attractive,
and the [Dm]girls react.
[F]It's a well -known [C]fact.
[Dm][G][C][Dm]
When [E]a m[Am]an is under 21,
[F]he is not worth a damn.
[Am]He thinks that he's a tiger,
[F]but he's [Am]really just a [F]lamb.
[G]He growls, [Eb]he roar[G]s,
[C]he wea[G]rs his trousers tight.
But he's [Am]like that [C]no
good [F]hound of ours,
all [E]bark, no [A]bite.
[Am]When a man is under [F]31,
he's [Am]like domestic [F]beer.
He has a certain body,
[E]but he [Am]doesn't have it [F]here.
He [G]wheels, [C]he dea[G]ls,
[Eb]he doesn[C]'t spare[G] expense
But he's [Am]like the national budget,
[F]all bil[E]ls, no cents[A]
But [F]when a man is 41,
he's entering his prime
Delight[E]fully [A]witty, [Esus4]still he'[A]s wise
For [B]he stood the test of [C]time[G][C][G][C]
[G][Gdim][D][G][Am][C]

An[Ebm]d the girls react
[Db]It's a well -known fact
