SOL
Asked my Daddy when I was thirteen
RE
"Daddy can you tell me what love really means?"
SOL
His eyes went glassy, not a word was said
RE (riff)
He poured another beer and his face turned red
SOL DO
Asked my mother, she acted the same
SOL RE
She never looked up, she seemed so ashamed
SOL DO
Asked my teacher, he reached for the cane
SOL RE
He said "don't mention that subject again"
CHORUS
MIm DO
So I read about love, I read it in a magazine
MIm DO
Read about love, cosmo and seventeen
MIm DO
Read about love, in the back of a hustler, hustler, hustler
SOL SOL/FA SOL/MI SOL/MIb SOL SOL/FA SOL/MI SOL/MIb
So I know what makes girls sigh
SOL SOL/FA SOL/MI SOL/MIb SOL SOL/FA SOL/MI SOL/MIb
And I know why girls cry
SOL MIm DO RE
So don't tell me I don't understand
SOL MIm DO RE
What makes a woman and what makes a man
SOL MIm LAm RE DO RE
I've never been to heaven but at least I've read about love
My big brother told me when I was fourteen
"It's time I showed you what love really means
Girls like kissing and romance too
But a boy's got to know what a man's got to do"
He gave me a book, the cover was plain
Written by a doctor with a German name
It had glossy pictures, serious stuff
I read it seven time then I knew it well enough
CHORUS #2;
Read about love, now I've got you
Read about love, where I want you
Read about love, I got you on the test-bed, test-bed, test-bed
So why, don't you moan and sigh?
And why do you sit there and cry?
I do everything I'm supposed to do
If something's wrong than it must be you
I know the ways of a woman I've read about love
Well well well, when I touch you there it's supposed to feel nice
That's what it said in reader's advice
I've never been to heaven but at least I've read about love
