[Em] _ [A] _ [Bm] _ [G] Fellas, [Bm] I wonder would you mind if I [A] talk to you for [Bm] a minute?
You know sometimes we have the tendency, [G] or should I [Bm] say we forget, [Em] what a woman needs
[Bm] every now and then.
[G] And that's if you want to keep your thing [A] together.
Listen up.
[Bm] _ [G] Do them things that keep the smile on your [F#m] face.
[G] Say them things that make you feel better [A] every day.
[G] _ [Bm] Man, you got to stay on your _
[Em] BBQs.

Check a little bit closer, you might [F#m] find a tear [Bm] trace.
Maybe the girl may never [D] say a mommaly [G] word.

you gotta put up with the talk and strife, [A] yeah.
[G] _ _ [F#m] _ [C#m] Now [G] listen.
Ooh, _ you're pushing my [Bm] love [F#m] a [D] little bit too far.
[Em] _ [F#m] I don't think [G] you know, I don't think you know [D] how blessed you are.
_ [Em] _ _ [Bm] And your pretty mate tells you all that she [Em] [F#m] sees.
