Em            D                C             G             D    And now I’m guessing that my woman must be late cause I need her.

GSeductive charm a way with words so effortless not leather clad or dangerous,
    Em       D             C             GBut I always did it like a real rebel would,
Em        D                C                G                                 I had a photo where John Lennon may have stood,
