E                 D#7         G#m
Here's what he'll do, he'll play it cool
F#m            E          D#7       G#m B7
When he hangs out with a woman like you
E            D#7                 G#m
Say he ain't pressed by all your success
F#m            E             D#7        G#m B7
Tell you he's different than all of the rest

             C#m
You're gonna give it all and give it all
        D#m
But you won't get it back
     E
I'm tellin' you, it's gonna hurt
      D#7
Stay away from a boy like that

Chorus:
          E     F#
He wants a breadwinner
    G#m       F#
He wants your dinner
   E           F#         G#m
Until he ain't hungry anymore
F#      E      F#
He wants your shimmer
    G#m           F#
To make him feel bigger
  E              F#         G#m   B
Until he starts feeling insecure
            E            D#m          G#m
I wish somebody would've told me the truth
           E           D#m       G#m
See, he's never gonna know what to do
        B          E F# G#m
With a woman like you
        B          E F# G#m B
With a woman like you

I see the games a mile away
They only end when another heart breaks
But all of his wounds ain't an excuse
For you to put up with how he treats you

You're gonna give it all and give it all
But you won't get it back
I'm tellin' you, it's gonna hurt
Stay away from a boy like that

Chorus

                E
I can sleep at night
                  C#m7
Knowing I really tried
              G#m
I put in the time
                    G#/C#
But the fault isn't mine

Chorus:
That he wants a breadwinner
He wants your dinner
Until he ain't hungry anymore (Anymore)
He wants a breadwinner
He wants your dinner
Until he ain't hungry anymore (Anymore)
He wants your shimmer
To make him feel bigger
Until he starts feelin' insecure
I wish somebody would've told me the truth
Say, "He's never gonna know what to do

With a woman like you
With a woman like you
With a woman like you and me"
He likes what he sees
