    Dm7
Now I'm the kinda guy,
             Em7        Am7         Dm7      Em7  Am7
Who don't be-lieve that chivalry is dead, no.

'Cos I believe a woman,
          Em7                        Am7        Em7  Am7

 Don't be ashamed; don't say that love's to blame,
     Dm7                   Em7  Am7
Just come and look me over.

Bridge 1:

               C
(You'll find a heart), you'll find a heart,
                                F
That you've always been lookin' for.
          Dm7                  G7
How could anybody ask for much more? Woo-hoo.

Chorus 1:

    Dm7                                  Em7           Am7
Now I like openin' doors, pickin' up her hanky off the floor;
Dm7                     Em7             Am7
 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).
          Dm7                             Em7               Am7
Light her cigarette if she smokes, even, (help her with her coat);
Dm7                     Em7             Am7
 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).

Verse 3:

        Dm7                          Em7  Am7    Dm7       Em7  Am7
In this world of liberation, it's so easy to for-get, mmm...
             Dm7                           Em7            Am7
That it's so nice to have a man around, to lend a helping hand,
        Dm7               Em7   Am7
You can bet, bet you can, baby.

Verse 4:

Dm7                   Em7          Am7
 When I was young, my mama used to say;
        Dm7                         Em7              Am7
"Boy, a woman's like a flower, with love on her, you shower".
Dm7                       Em7                Am7
 Ever since that day, her words never went a-way,
  Dm7                      Em7           Am7
I always will remember, to treat my baby tender.

Bridge 2:

That you've always been lookin' for.
          Dm7                  G7
How could anybody ask for much more? Woo-hoo.

    Dm7                                  Em7           Am7
Now I like openin' doors, pickin' up her hanky off the floor;
Dm7                     Em7             Am7
 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).
          Dm7                             Em7               Am7
Light her cigarette if she smokes, even, (help her with her coat);

 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).

       Dm7                        Em7               Am7
Compli-ment her on her hair, even help her with her chair;

 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).

Now boy, you should remember, to be a gentle-man;

 Treat her like a lady, (treat her like lady).
