Chords for Joshua Ledet - "When a Man Loves a Women"

[F#m] Welcome back to Idol.
Show some love for the pride of Westlake, Louisiana right here. _
I was in Louisiana over the weekend in New Orleans and I know that a couple weeks ago you said here on the show that you miss crawfish.
That you want some crawfish.
You were talking to Randy about that.
I miss it so much.
It's ridiculous.
My friend, this is why I'm here.
Bring it on out, Tony.
Shit!
[G] Oh my God!
The great [F#m] state of Louisiana sent these to you.
Uh-uh.
So, anybody want some crawfish?
Can I eat some now?
Yeah, you gotta show us how do you eat these correctly.
What's the right way to do it?
Come on, girls.
Come on up.
You grab it.
So watch this.
He's gonna show you.
[F#] You grab it like this.
Here, you wanna grab one?
And then [F#m] you kinda crack it a little bit like that.
And then [F#] you peel it.
You peel it.
And then you take it out and you eat it.
What if you have a shellfish allergy?
Then don't eat it.
[E] I don't.
[F#] Girls, you look afraid of these.
They're really good.
Just taste it.
I swear you're gonna love it.
I'll go back.
He's with Joshua.
You get to take these home, by the way.
Oh, okay.
Good.
I'm gonna take them to the [C] hotel.
Hotel you go.
Joshua was born April the [Am] 9th, 1992.
I [C] am the youngest of 8 kids.
It [F] was fun just having brothers and [Am] sisters to always hang out with.
They always just [C] knew Josh as just the baby of the [F] family.
[Am] Joshua always wanted to sing in church,
and I would tell him [C] no because he was a little rascal.
He was 12, and [A] he went [C] to my husband,
[G] and my husband said [F] yes, [C] and he got up and he sang,
and he's been [G] singing ever since.
Tonight [C] I'm singing Michael Bolton's version of
When a Man Loves a [A#] Woman.
When [C] a man [G] loves a woman
[A]
[F] Oh, yeah, Joshua, soul man.
His [C] approach, his skill, the pain I felt,
[F#] When a man loves a woman
[C#] Hey, _ _ _ _ [D#] _
[C] can I ask you a question?
[G] You sing in church?
[Bm] I [C] just got flashbacks of my [G] mom pinching me
telling me to be still in church.
[Am] Really?
Yeah, you took me to church.
[Gm] My dad's a [C] pastor, so that's why.
[F] You sound like your dad's a pastor.
[C] Joshua came a long way this week.
I believed every second of it.
I felt I was in his house.
You say yes, ma'am, to your [Bm] mom, what she call you?
Yeah.
[G] I say yes, ma [Am]'am, to my mom, what she call me.
If she don't, she knock [E] me to the floor.
Yeah, my mom do that, so I chip my trizzle.
[F] _
[C] America's in for a treat tonight.
I can't wait to see Joshua perform.
He's gonna tear the roof down [F] in a nice way,
because his mom's gonna whoop his butt if he tears [C] it down.
_ _ _ [G] [C] When a _
[G] _ [C] man can't keep his mind on nothing [F] else
[Dm]
[F] He'll change the world for [C] the good he's found
[G] If [C] she [G] can't see it, [Am] she [C] can't do no [F] wrong
[Dm] Turning his back on [F] his best friend
[C] If he puts her down, well, [F] _
this man's [C] a woman
_ _ _ [F] I'll give you anything [C] I _ want
[F] _
Crying out [C] to your [G] precious [Am] love
[G] Quiet, baby, [D] please don't [C] treat me bad
_ _ _ [G#] _ [A#] _
_ [C#] _ _ _ [G#] _ [A#m] She [C#] found me this [G#m] [F#] love
[D#m] She can bring you such [C#] misery _
[G#] [C#] When a man _ [G#] _ [A#m] can't keep his mind on [C#] nothing [F#] else
He'll change the world for the [G#] good he's found
Yeah, [A#] _ _ this man's a woman
[C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Whoa!
Joshua, _ _ _ _ _ man, that was so good, we were up halfway through it.
_ What?
What do I sing?
There's almost no words for that.
Oh my God.
Listen, man, we got some amazing singers this year,
and we've been saying all night, me, Steven, and Jennifer, like,
yo, we need a moment tonight.
Somebody needs to come out here and blow it out the box.
That was so good. _
Somebody needs to come out here and regulate Joshua Ledeck.
That was phenomenal, incredible on every level.
I think_
_ I've ever seen on American Idol.
The best thing I've ever seen.
Crazy.
Crazy.
Crazy good.
My God.
You know what, though, Steven?
I'm so excited right now.
I got a theory.
I got a theory.
Where's Ryan?
See, because Ryan, you [G#] know what made this vocal special, Ryan?
The fact that me and you were in New Orleans and we brought back that crawfish.
That's the thing.
That's right.
That's the crawfish you were singing for.
That's [N] right.
I want that crawfish so bad.
No, I'm doing Taylor.
You gave it up so big, God came through your eyes, man.
Thank you.
That was just the most beautiful performance I've ever seen.
And the notes.
Oh, man.
You're a great singer, Joshua.
Pussy Slaves.
Pussy Slaves that originally did that song is somewhere very proud and happy.
Wow.
I can't stop saying wow.
Stop me, Ryan.
I can't stop.
Honestly, this is one of [F#] those moments where I'm sitting here thinking, maybe we never go to commercial.
Maybe _ [F#m] _ we just [G#] _ [F#m] _
[F#] have an appetizer, relax, and stay here until tomorrow.
Oh, God.
If anybody's watching backstage, get the man a crawfish.
Bring it on out here.
