[Intro 1]
[D][C][A][D][C][A]

[Verse 1]
I was [D]laughing horizontally
In my [G]loose and lusty youth
I was [Bm]feeling well self- satisfied
De[A]liciously uncouth
When [F#m]she slipped out from my [Bm]covers
[D]With [G]a smile
Saying, "Y[C]ou've got a lot to learn,
dear [Em]boy
[C]It's [Em]going to take a while[Asus4]."[A]

[Verse 2]
She [G]said- -
[F#m]Manhood- [Em]- Means that you [Bm]should
Get [E]someone else,
be[G]side [Asus4]yourself
Feeling [A]good
You know a [G]real man [F#m]would
Do [Em]much more than [Bm]you could
You [E]know he'd wonder [G]if he
[Asus4]Understood [A]me![D]
I [A]said, "I see, let's start again."
[D]She said, "You know [A]you
never can[D]."
[C]

[Verse 3]
[A]
She [D]put her clothes back on
[G]She straightened up my bed
She [Bm]hit me with a line
The still does [A]numbers on my head
She says, "Y[F#m]our mind chooses be[Bm]tter
Than [G]your hands do
Your [C]heart chooses better
Than [Em]your glands [D]do!"[A]

[Verse 4]
She [G]said- -
[F#m]Manhood- [Em]- Means that you [Bm]should
Get [E]someone else,
be[G]side [Asus4]yourself
[A]Feeling good
You know a [G]real man [F#m]would
Do [Em]much more than [Bm]you could
You [E]know he'd wonder [G]if he
[A]Understood [D]me![A]
I said, "I see, let's start again."
[D]She [A]sai[D]d, [C]"Yo[A]u
know [D]you [C]never can[A]."

[Verse 5]
So I [D]stood there in my shorts
Feeling [G]naked just the same
[Bm]With her last few words
I knew I was [A]brand new at the game
She [F#m]gave her gentle s[Bm]mile
She [G]slipped out through the door
Saying, [C]"You're my first and only love
Just [Em]like all [Asus4]my lvoesbefore[A]."

[Verse 6]
She [G]said- -
[F#m]Manhood- - Means
[Em]that you shoul[Bm]d
Get [E]someone else,
be[G]side [Asus4]yourself
Feel[A]ing good
You know [G]a real man [F#m]would
Do [Em]much more than [Bm]you could
You [E]know he'd wonder [G]if he
[A]Understood [D]me!
I [A]said, "I see, let's start again."
[F#m]She said,
"You know [E]you [Esus4]never can[A]."[D]
