E                A           E              A
The crown of the kingdom is given to the woman 
E                A       E                  A
The kingdom of the kitchen where she says she shouldn't, 
D                    Bm                  A      B
There on the stainless steel her cigarettes and matches   
C#m            F#m                    E
Whistles to the radio to every hook she catches, 
       F#m
But the frowns 
        C#
Eider downs, 
       Am
Tie her down 
A                              E ( A C#m A )
But she likes to wear the crown of the kingdom. 

E             A          E      A
She like the recipes a touch of oriental 
E              A        E             A
Steaming up the windows burning egg on metal, 
D             Bm                 A   B
Sees in a catalogue a shiny new appliance 
C#m                    F#m               E
Another role swallowed by the wonders of science, 
        F#m
Lobster hands 
         B
Omelette pans, 
     Am
Understand 
A                                E ( A C#m A )
How the crown can stick like jam in her kingdom. 

Ab                  C#m
He's been so busy and she's been neglected, 
Ab                      C#m
The problem is computed and always it's rejected, 
Ab            A                 F#m
Out of her heart I catch a spark, 
       B
And being smart 
            Ab               A                   F#m      B
The crown is left out in the dark now there's no kingdom. 

F#            B           F#        B
Fed up with the glory she abdicates her title 
F#                B         F#                B
Sitting at a bar stool she gives her day's recital, 
    E                 C#m
The family watch in horror 
                     B      ( C# )
As she staggers up the hallway
Ebm
Makes herself a sandwich 
Abm                         F#
As they're looking through the doorway, 
           Abm
She goes to bed 
      Eb
Leg by leg, 
          Bm
Nothing's said 
           B                          F#
There's no crown upon her head there's no kingdom. 


F#        ( E ) F#             B       
Press the button on the toaster 
D
It's a woman's world, 
F#      ( E ) F#             D
Tuck the sheets in on the bed 
B
It's a woman's world, 
F#          ( E ) F#             D
Take your apron from your holster 
B
It's a woman's world, 
F#         ( E ) F#             B
Shoot the crown off of your head 
D
It's a woman's world.
