C G7 C
my mistakes are no worse than yours just because i’m a woman

C C7 F
just let me tell you this then we’ll both know where we stand
C G7 C
my mistakes are no worse than yours just because i’m a woman

G7
now a man will take a good girl and he’ll ruin her reputation
C

C7 F
he’ll just walk off and leave her to do the best she can
C G7 C
while he looks for an angel to wear his wedding band

F C
now i know that i’m no angel if that’s what you thought you’d found
F C G7
i was just the victim of a man that let me down
C C7 F
yes i’ve made my mistakes but listen and understand
C G7 C
my mistakes are no worse than yours just because i’m a woman
