Rolling over trying to sleep

Cm/Eb
And understanding women

Thinking of you out there somewhere

Looking for a new beginning

Just let me be the final word

In the book we haven't written

I won't be another page

Gm
In understanding women
I could drive to Mexico
On understanding women
Throw myself against the waves
And answer up to heaven
How come her heart's so stubborn
And what's so wrong with giving
Ask the big sky talking
About understanding women
G7/F
Cm
F
Bb
And I'm not just anyone who ever stood outside your door
G7/F
Cm
F Bb
And I'm not any man you've ever known before
Bb7
Don't judge this picture by the frame
Eb
Every man is not the same
F
Some men reach beyond the pain
Of understanding women
