Fsus4       FF Piano Chord 

Loving your sweet ways
Fsus4            FF Piano Chord 

Loving the funny things you say
Fsus4       FF Piano Chord 

Loving the silence
CC Piano Chord 

Wrapped in my man's arms at the end of the day

Fsus4       FF Piano Chord 

Loving the way you
Fsus4
Make me feel
FF Piano Chord 

That women rule the world
Fsus4                 FF Piano Chord 

If women ruled the world
CC Piano Chord 

It would be a good thing

Fsus4       FF Piano Chord 

No more war no more hate
Fsus4               FF Piano Chord 

Women can fight but talking's great
Fsus4            FF Piano Chord 

Behind your back to your face
CC Piano Chord 

They'd rather talk than murder

Fsus4       FF Piano Chord 

Not all men kill babies
Fsus4
But a woman would rather
FF Piano Chord 

Kill herself
Fsus4     FF Piano Chord 

Than see a child suffer
CC Piano Chord 

Women are carers, they were born that way

Fsus4         FF Piano Chord 

Like mother nature feeds the world
Fsus4               FF Piano Chord 

A woman will think of her child first
Fsus4        FF Piano Chord 

No more sons dying young
CC Piano Chord 

Women bore sons for living

Fsus4      FF Piano Chord 

I love how you love me
Fsus4
Make me feel that
FF Piano Chord 

Women rule the world
Fsus4                 FF Piano Chord 

If women ruled the world
CC Piano Chord 

It would be a good thing

Fsus4                 FF Piano Chord 

If women ruled the world
Fsus4                 FF Piano Chord 

If women ruled the world
Fsus4                 FF Piano Chord 

If women ruled the world
CC Piano Chord 

It would be a good thing

Everything else is solo work by Joan, and I can't figure
it out. I hope this helps and please send corrections to

Cheers,
