#1.
Ab     C#          Ab     Bbm            Fm
When a man loves a woman, can't keep his mind on nothing else,
F#              Ab                 C#               Ab
he'll trade the world for the good thing he's found.
         C#           Ab      Bbm           Fm
If she's bad he can't see it, she can do no wrong,
F#                   Ab                C#           Ab
turn his back on his best friend if he put her down.

#2.
       C#          Ab     Bbm       Fm
When a man loves a woman, spend his very last dime,
F#             Ab            C#    Ab
tryin' to hold on to what he needs.
             C#      Ab       Bbm              Fm
He'd give up all his comfort, sleep out in the rain,
F#                     Ab     C#         C#7
If she said that's the way it ought to be.

CHORUS:
F#                     C#     F#                      C#
Well, this man loves a woman, I gave you everything I had.
F#                   C#            Bbm
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love,
Eb    Eb7                   Ab   Ab7
Baby, please don't treat me bad.

#3.
       C#          Ab     Bbm              Fm
When a man loves a woman, down deep in his soul..
F#      Ab             C#     Ab
she can bring him such misery.
       C#              Ab    Bbm           Fm
If she plays him for a fool, he's the last one to know..
F#     Ab              C#   Ab
lovin' eyes don't ever see.

#4.
       C#          Ab     Bbm              Fm
When a man loves a woman, he can do her no wrong..
F#       Ab                  C#   Ab
he could never want somebody else.
       C#          Ab     Bbm      Fm
When a man loves a woman, I know exactly how he feels,
F#          Ab              C#     Ab
Baby, Baby, Baby, you're my world..

OUTRO:
       C#          Ab     Bbm      Fm
When a man loves a woman, I know exactly how he feels,
F#          Ab              C#     Ab
Baby, Baby, Baby, you're my world..(Fade.)
