[INTRO]
[C] [F]
[VERSE 1]
[C]ah many a man has built his own temple
[C]shown to convey his grace and sk!ll
[C]having red domes, pillars and arches
[C]all fashioned to fit his will
[C]when over men observe it’s beauty
[C]they stand and see and sigh and say
[C]great is your work, oh yes, oh builder
your fame shall [F]never fade away[C]
[VERSE 2]
[C]those who do not know and do not know
[C]that they do not know, are foolish, avoid them
[C]then there is woman, a builder of nations
[C]laden with labour, love and care
[C]they place each pillar with pride and patience
pops every [F]plan she’ll pose to a [C]prayer
[F]those who do not know that [C]know
[C]that they do not know, are children, a dark girl
[VERSE 3]
[C]but few men will [F]praise her cause and omen
[C]some may not even understand
most of the [F]struggle borne by woman
[C]is seldomly held in the eyes of [F]man
[C]those who know and do not know
[C]that they know, they’re asleep, awake them
[VERSE 4]
[C]so be the temples men have cherished
[C]crumbled in ruins to rot and rust
[C]no lies each pillar and arch to perish
[C]doomed to decay and rot to dust
[F]oh but those who [C]know and know that they know
[C]are of wisdom, appreciate them
[VERSE 5]
[C]oh but the temples created in woman
[C]never have failed in statue and goal
[C]deep in her heart she fills her temple
[C]in her own [F]child her mortal [C]soul [F] [C]
