Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]We [Am]may[C][Am][Dm][C]
be temperamental
And we may be unpredictable
We may nag and get you upset,
or we might sometimes be
a pain [Dm]in the neck.
Oh, but that house would
have never been a home.
And that child would have [Gsus4]never been born
[C]If it wasn't [F]for a
[C]If it wasn't [F]for [Gsus4]a[G][C]
Without a woman's love and care
When man's burden is easy to bear
We might get angry from day to day
If we can't have things our own way
[Dm]But in spite of all our faults,
a man, he would [Gsus4]still be lost
[G]if [C]it wasn't for a wom[F]an,
[C]if it wasn't for [F]a w[Gsus4]oman.[G][C]

[Interlude 1]
[F][Em][Am][F][Em][Dm][F][Em][Dm]
[C]

[Verse 2]
That cradle [C]would be deserted now
A man is strong,
but he's no earthly count
Without a woman to give him strength
When he'd lose all his confidence
[Dm]When in spite of all his faults
A man, he would still be [G]lost
[F]If [C]it wasn't for[F] that woman
[C]If it wasn't [F]for that
[C]If it wasn't for a [F]woman
[C]If it wasn't for a [F]woman
[C]If it wasn't for a [F]woman
What would [C]you do?
If it wasn't for a [F]woman
[C]If it wasn't for a [F]woman
