    A
In some respects
      E                    D        A
I suspect you've got a respectable side
      A                      E
When pushed and pulled and pressured
     D              E
You seldom run and hide
              A             E
But it's for someone elses benefit
          G       D     A
Not for what you wanna do
                        E
Until I realize that you've realized
           D                  A
I'm gonna say these words to you

Chorus:
 A                   E
You don't know what love is
     D            A
You do as you're told
 A                  E
Just as a child of ten might act
            D      A
But you're far too old
                        E
You're not hopeless or helpless
       G       D     A
And I hate to sound cold
     E                   D
But you don't know what love is
                       A
You just do as you're told

I can see your man
Cant help but win
Any problems that may arise
But in his mind there can be no sin
If you never criticize
You just keep on repeating
All those empty "I love you's"
Until you say you deserve better
I'm gonna lay right into you

Chorus:
You don't know what love is
You just do as you're told
Just as a child of ten might act
But you're far too old
Your not hopeless or helpless
And I hate to sound cold
But you don't know what love is
No you don't know what love is
No you don't know what love is

You just do as you're told
You do as you're told
Yeah
