Madonna whore

D C D C

1. What are you thinking when you're looking at me?

Bb C

What can you tell me of reality?

D C D C

I'm only woman, not just a fantasy,

Bb C

and the flesh and blood is warmer than some color transparency.

D C D C

Every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore,

Bb - C

you can try to reduce me but I'm so much more.

D C - D C

I don't want to be your mother, won't be shoved in a drawer,

Bb C

'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore.

- D - C - D

That's right !

2. What are you thinking when you push me away?

Bb C

Was it some promise in your youth you made?

D C D C

Holding out for something or hoping to be saved.

Bb C

Does it make you feel power or are you just afraid of me?

D C D C

Every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore,

Bb - C

you can try to reduce me but I'm so much more.
