C        Dm   Dm2               F               C 
When a woman loves a man it’s stronger than the sun 
C           Dm   Dm2               F              C 
So unfolds the hidden plan that won’t stop once begun 
G                F 
Her light comes shining 
G          Am       Em          F 
Inside him little tender blooms expand 
                      C        Dm   Dm2 
When a woman loves a man 
F                      C 
Ever since the world began 

C           Dm   Dm2        F                 C 
When a woman gives herself she goes out on a limb 
C           Dm   Dm2           F              C 
Her body cannot help but tell the story that’s within 
G               F 
She pours her trust in him 
G            Am      Em            F 
And all she asks is that he understands 
                           C        Dm   Dm2 
The gift he holds in his hands 
F                     C 
When a woman loves a man 

Gm                   C 
Water carving out a canyon 
Gm                     C 
Sure gets deeper over time 
Gm                       F        C 
A woman’s love seeks its companion 
Dm                      Em 
As freshwater seeks the brine 

Dm Em 
Oooh 
(Dm/Dm2\Dm)
Oooh 

-Harmonica Solo- 
C Dm Dm2 F C (x2) 

G                       F 
Her streams, hills and valleys 
G              Am                Em                         F 
Her sweet home – the whole damn country in the palm of his hand! 
                          C        Dm   Dm2 
Springtime all across the land 
F                    C        Dm   Dm2 
When a woman loves a man 
F                    C        Dm   Dm2 
Ever since the world began 
F                    C        Dm   Dm2 
When a woman loves a man 
F                          C        Dm   Dm2 
Get ready for the tender plan 
F                    C 
When a woman loves a man
