I COULD NEVER TAKE THE PLACE OF YOUR MAN - PRINCE
C G F
It was only last June when her old man ran away
C G F
She couldn't stop cryin' `cause she knew he was gone to stay
C G F
It was 10:35 on a lonely Friday night
C G F
She was standin' by the bar, Hmm, she was lookin' alright
C G F
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said that all she wanted was a good man
C G F
and wanted to know if I thought I was qualified
F C F
And I said, baby don't waste your time
F C F
I know what's on your mind
F C G D
I may be qualified 4 a one night stand
F G
But I could never take the place of your man
C G F
C G F
C G F
It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes
C G F
He was all she ever had and now she wanted 2 die
C G F
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
C G F
She couldn't stop cryin' cause she knew he was gone 2 stay
C G F
She asked me if we could be friends, and I said oh honey baby that's a dead end
C G F
U know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied
F C F
And I said, baby don't waste your time
F C F
I know what's on your mind
F C G D
We wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand
F G
And I could never take the place of your man
