D#
Silky smooth
 F                D#
Lips as sweet as candy, baby
D#
Tight blue jeans
  F                 D#
Skin that shows in patches

  D#                F
Strong inside, but you don't know it
 C#                      D#
Good little girls, they never show it
         F            G#maj7
When you open up your mouth to speak
          C#          D#
Could you be a little weak?

Chorus:
        D#           F                G#  C#
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
        D#           F                  G#
Do you know what it feels like in this world
       C#   D#
For a girl?

Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby
Hands that rest on jutting hips, repenting

Hurt that's not supposed to show
And tears that fall when no one knows
When you're trying hard to be your best
Could you be a little less?

Chorus:
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl?
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
Do you know what it feels like in this world
What it feels like for a girl?

Strong inside, but you don't know it
Good little girls, they never show it
When you open up your mouth to speak
Could you be a little weak?

Chorus:
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl?
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
Do you know what it feels like in this world?

For a girl
In this world
Do you know
Do you know
Do you know what it feels like for a girl?
What it feels like in this world?
