[Verse 1]
       D                                      B7             Em
So you think the girl is crazy to eat up your lies like it's good
               B7         Em        B7   Em
Your lies like apple pie; she don't even cry.
C                  A                                           D
She is not a fool; she's just tryin' to do what her heart says to:
                D7
To love you.
G                          D                 D7             G
 And as you take it to the wind, through the wind again she breaks
                         C7
And as she breaks down within
D
She waits for you patiently, hopin' that someday you'll see
                                                     F#m   G
All she really wants to be is yours and yours alone eternally.

[Chorus]
G           F#m      Em      D
What do you want the girl to do?
G                      F#m          Em       D
 Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two?
G            F#m      Em      D
 What do you want the girl to do?
G (slower)               F#  Bm  F#7  Bm
 All she really wants is you.

[Verse 2]
D                                             B7           Em
 She knows what you are; still she'll be your queen if you let her
             B7          Em      B7     Em
Just say the word today; build a world around her.
C                           A                                      D
Now and then you'll promise all the way out things you're going to get her
                               D7
'Cos maybe she knows better.
G                       D                    D7   G                           C7
       As she watch you come and go for your show, and as she watch your promises erode
D
She waits for you patiently, hopin' that someday you'll see
                                                     F#m   G
All she really wants to be is yours and yours alone eternally.

[Chorus]
G           F#m      Em      D
What do you want the girl to do?
G                     F#m          Em       D
 Can't you see you're breakin' the child in two?
G            F#m      Em      D
 What do you want the girl to do?
G (slower)               F#  Bm  F#7  Bm
 All she really wants is you.

[Chorus]
G            F#m      Em      D
 What do you want the girl to do?
G                      F#m          Em       D
 Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two?
G            F#m      Em      D
 What do you want the girl to do?
G                     F#m          Em       D
 Can't you see you're breakin' the child in two?
