[Verse 1]
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I was watering my rose garden and you walked by my place
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I almost ran up to you in a lustful, unsensitive haste
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I almost cried cause I acted so insensitive
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
But I wanted you to know about the feather-soft warmth I could give
[Chorus]
E B6/D#
I respect your feelings
D A6/C#
I respect your gender
E B6/D#
I respect your existence
G GM7/F#
I'll always be tender cause
E EM7/D#
I respect your feelings
D DM7/C# C CM7/B A
As a woman and a hu-----man
[Interlude]

Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
[Verse 2]
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I'll be the pansy-growing gardener of our bouquet of love
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
C# flower-wielding soldier with the grace of a dove
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I'll love you all, heart, mind and soul, I'd never think of anything cheap
Esus2 GM7 F6sus C9sus
I'll read you some of my poems before you go to sleep
[Chorus]
E B6/D#
I respect your feelings
D A6/C#
I respect your gender
E B6/D#
I respect your existence
G GM7/F#
I'll always be tender cause
E EM7/D#
I respect your feelings
D DM7/C# C CM7/B A
As a woman and a hu-----man
