Why Don‘t You Try

               A                 C# 
Why don‘t you try to do without him 
               D            A 
Why don‘t you try to live alone 
                                       C# 
Do you really need his hands for your passion 
        D                               A 
Do you really need his heart for your throne 
        E                        D 
Do you need his labour for your baby 
        E                      D 
Do you need his beast for the bone 
        E                            D 
Do you need to hold a leash to be a lady 
    A                D  C#m   Bm     A       G      B7     E 
I know that you can make it, make it on your own 
 
Why don‘t you try to forget him 
Why just open up your dainty little hand 
You know this life is filled with many sweet companions 
Many satisfying one-night stands 
Do you want to be the ditch around a tower 
Do you want to be the moonlight in his cave 
Do you want to give your blessing to his power 
As he goes whistling past his daddy, past his daddy‘s grave 
 
I‘d like to take you to the ceremony 
That is if I remember the way 
You see Jack and Jill they‘re going to join their misery 
I‘m afraid it‘s time for everyone to pray 
You can see they‘ve finally taken cover 
You can see that they‘re willing to obey 
Their vows are difficult they‘re for each other 
So let nobody put a loophole, a loophole in their way
