READ ABOUT LOVE- Richard Thompson
G Asked my Daddy when I was thirteen D "Daddy can you tell me what love really means?" G His eyes went glassy, not a word was said D (riff) He poured another beer and his face turned red GC Asked my mother, she acted the same GD She never looked up, she seemed so ashamed GC Asked my teacher, he reached for the cane GD He said "don't mention that subject again"
CHORUS: EmC So I read about love, I read it in a magazine EmC Read about love, cosmo and seventeen EmC Read about love, in the back of a hustler, hustler, hustler GG/FG/EG/EbGG/FG/EG/Eb So I know what makes girls sigh GG/FG/EG/EbGG/FG/EG/Eb And I know why girls cry GEmCD So don't tell me I don't understand GEmCD What makes a woman and what makes a man GEmAmDCD 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
