[Verse 1]
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I was watering my rose garden and you walked by my place
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I almost ran up to you in a lustful, unsensitive haste
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I almost cried cause I acted so insensitive
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
But I wanted you to know about the feather-soft warmth I could give
[Chorus]
G D6/F#
I respect your feelings
F C6/E
I respect your gender
G D6/F#
I respect your existence
A# A#M7/A
I'll always be tender cause
G GM7/F#
I respect your feelings
F FM7/E Eb EbM7/D C
As a woman and a hu-----man
[Interlude]
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
[Verse 2]
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I'll be the pansy-growing gardener of our bouquet of love
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
E flower-wielding soldier with the grace of a dove
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I'll love you all, heart, mind and soul, I'd never think of anything cheap
Gsus2 A#M7 F6sus C9sus
I'll read you some of my poems before you go to sleep
[Chorus]
G D6/F#
I respect your feelings
F C6/E
I respect your gender
G D6/F#
I respect your existence
A# A#M7/A
I'll always be tender cause
G GM7/F#
I respect your feelings
F FM7/E Eb EbM7/D C
As a woman and a hu-----man
