(VERSE 1)
A7              Em
Can we run that again
A7              Em
Is that a woman's voice I hear?
G                       Em                    G
I said, "Let's wait and see. I'll see for myself"
G                    Em
That's a phrase I repeat to myself
G                   Em
Made a reference to me and
Em
that's myself too.

Refer to women and their names
G                            Em
I heard the voice first last week
Em
I heard it myself
G                   Em
Made a reference to me
Em
That's myself
G                  Em
This report's incomplete
Em
I see for myself
