[Verse 1]
[D]It [G]tak[D]es [G]a[D][Asus4][D][A][D]
woman all powdered and pink
to joy[G]ously [F#]clean out the
drain in [A]the [Edim]sink.
And it [D]takes an [G]angel with
long [F#]golden lashes
[Bm]and soft[A] Dresden fingers[E]
for [Em]dumping the [A]ashes.
[D]Yes, [F#]it take[Em]s a woma[A]n, a daint[D]y woma[F#m]n,[Bm]
A [Em]sweetheart, a [A]mistress, a [D]wife.
Oh, [Em]yes, it takes a [Asus4]woman,
[A]a fra[D]gile woman[Bm],
To [Em]bring you the [A]sweet things
in [D]life.[G][D][G][D][G]
[D]The[A] fra[D]il young maiden
who's constantly there,
For [G]washing [Gm]and blui[F#]ng
and [Bm]shoeing the mare,
[Edim]And it tak[D]es a fem[G]ale
for setting [F#]the table,
[Bm]And wean[F#]ing the [A]gynsey,[E]
and [Em]cleaning the [Asus4]stable.[A]
[Em]Yes, it takes a woma[A]n, a daint[D]y woman,[Bm]
A [Em]sweetheart, a [A]mistress, a [D]wife.[Ddim]
Oh [Em]yes, it takes a [A]woman,
a [D]fragile wo[Bm]man,
To [Em]bring you the [A]sweet
things in [D]life.[G][Em]
[Asus4]An d so s[D]he'll[C] wo[D]rk[G]
[A]until infin[D]ity,
Three [E]cheers for their omni[A]potence.
[Em][D][G][D][Em][Fdim][A]
And [D]in the winter, she'll shovel the ice,
An[G]d lovingly [F#]set out the
[Bm]traps for the [Em]mice.
She's [Bm]a joy and [G]treasure
for practically [F#]speaking
[Bm]To whom [A]can you turn[E]
when the plumb[Em]ing is [A]leaking?
To [Adim]that da[Am]inty wom[Em]an,[A]
[D]that fragile woman
[Bm]That [Em]sweetheart, [A]that mistress, that wife
[D]Tha[C#m]t womanl[E]y wife[D]
[G]Oh yes, [Em]it takes a woman,
[A]a hus[D]ky wo [Bm]man,
to bring you [A]the sweet things in [D]life.[B]
Oh yes, it [A]takes [C#m]a woma[F#m]n,
[B]a dai[E]nty wom[B]an,[E]
a [B]sweetheart, a mistress, a [E]wife.
[A]Oh yes, it takes a woman,
[B]a fra[Abm]gile woman[C#m],
to [B]bring you the sweet things in [E]life!
