Love Me Like a Man
by Chris Smither, as performed by Bonnie Raitt
Intro: / E - - - / - - - - / - - - - / - - B7 - /
E (4)
The men that I've been seeing, baby
Got their soul up on a shelf
you know they could never love me
When they can't even love themselves
A (2)
But I need someone to love me
E (2)
Someone to really understand
B7
Who won't put himself above me
A E (1˝) B7 (˝)
Who just loves me like a man
E (4)
I never seen such losers darlin’
even though I try to find the
man who can take me home
’stead of taking me for a ride
A (2)
And I need someone to love me
E (2)
I know you can
B7
Believe me when I tell you
A E (1˝) B7 (˝)
you can love me like a man

They all want me to rock them
like my back ain't got no bone
I want a man to rock me

E (2)

Believe me when I tell you

I come home sad and lonely
Feel like I wanna cry
I want a man to hold me
Not some fool to ask me why

Darlin’ I know you can
B7
Don't you put yourself above me
A (hold)
