C      -       G            F
 I walk into a room just as cool as you please
C      -     G                     F 
 And to a man the fellas stand And fall down on their knees.
C      -         G                F                  F
 Then they swarm around me Like a hive of honey bees,
                    F    -     C 
I say, "It's in the fire in my eyes,
    F     -     C
The flash of my teeth,
    F     -     C
The swing of my waist,
    F        
The joy in my feet."


CHORUS:
      C     G            F      F
I'm a woman  Phenomenal woman.
      F     G             C     G
I'm a woman. Baby, that's me.


BRIDGE
           Bb          C
It's in the arch of my back,
    Bb        C
The sun of my smile,
    Bb         F
The ride of my breast,
    Bb          Bb      ?      ?
The grace of my style. (key changes here - up two steps)


D      -     A      G
 Now you understand Just why my head's not bowed.
D      -      A             G
 I don't shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud.
D          -         A           G                     G
 But when you see me passin', It oughta make you proud.
                G     -     D
I say, "It's in click of my heels, 
    G     -    D
The bend of my hair,
    G     -    D
The palm of my hands, 
    G                  G
The need for my care."

CHORUS:
             D      A           G             
'Cause I'm a woman  Phenomenal woman.
       D    A              D
 I'm a woman. Baby, that's me.
            D     -    A
 Its in the palm of my hands
                     G
 and the need for my care

G
Phenomenal, phenomenal
G
Phenomenal woman

A
baby, baby, baby, baby
       D
that's me
