Intro:
[G] [C] [F] [C] [G]

[G] Don't go for sec[C]ond best baby

[F]Put your love [C]to the test

[G] You know, you know, you've got to

[G] Make him exp[C]ress how he feels

And maybe [F]then you'll know your [C]love is [G]real

[G] You don't need d[F]iamond rings

Or eighteen karat go[F]ld

Fancy cars that go very fast

You know they never last, no, [G]no

[G] What you need is a [F]big strong hand

To lift you to your higher gro[G]und

Make you feel like a [F]queen on a throne

Make him love you till you can't come [G]down

(chorus)

Long stem roses are the way to your heart
But he needs to start with your head
Satin sheets are very romantic
What happens when you're not in bed
You deserve the best in life
So if the time isn't right then move on
Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own

(chorus)

Express your[G]self

You've got to ma[C]ke him

Express himsel[F]f

Hey, [C]hey, hey, h[G]ey

So if you want it right now, make him sh[C]ow you how

Ex[F]press what he's [C]got, oh baby r[G]eady or not

[F] And when you're gone he might re[G]gret it

Think about the love he once [F]had

Try to carry on, but he just won't [G]get it

He'll be back on his knees

To ex[G]press himself

You've g[C]ot to make him

Exp[F]ress him[G7sus4]self

[G7]Hey [G]hey

(chorus)
