Verse 1:
        C/G        
	I sat at a bar having a beer
          F        G           C/G
	Tryin' to hold down the stool 

	When a stranger walked in - stood there beside me
              F            G           C/G
	And plopped down there like a fool

	He started drinkin' then he started talkin'
                F                G          C/G 
	About things that were wrong in his life
             F                    C/G  
	The more that i heard the more i believed
                             G           C/G 
	The thing that was wrong was his wife


Verse 2:
        C/G
	You talk about beauty,when we first met
      F                G          C/G 
	She was all a man could desire

	Talk about love,one night with her
      F                      G      C/G 
	Would set your very soul on fire

	But loves little flame is out of control
      F                   G          C/G  
	About three feet high from behind
      F                                         C/G        
	Ever since we've been married,well i've come to believe
                             G            C/G
	That love's for the dumb and the blind


Verse 3:
        C/G 
	'Cause you talk about ugly,when she gets mad
      F                G             C/G         
	She goes from Jekill to Hyde

	She grits her teeth and her eyes roll back
      F                 G      C/G
	And pivot from side to side

	She completely rewrites the whole English language
             F     G             C/G   
	Descriptive,four-lettered and loud
              F                         C/G     
	Now i can't out think her,but i can sure out drink her
                                   G       C/G        
	And that's what i'm doing here now


Verse 4:
         F                              C/G  
	I've spent seven years with the wrong woman
         F                       C/G
	Seven and going on eight
         F                     C/G
	She spent seven years naggin' and eatin'
                              G   
	I'm overwrought and she's overweight
         F             C/G       
	If i try leavin' she has me arrested
         F                                     C/G  
	And takes her own sweet time gettin' me out
         F                    C/G 
	If she ain't number one,she's in the top two
	F                       G      C/G 
	Of things that i could live without


Verse 5:
         F                    C/G
	Men commit murder and all kinds of mayhem
           F                                 C/G 
	In a few years they're back on the streets
         F                   C/G  
	Highway robbery and white collar crime
                                           G
	And they laugh at the system they beat
             F                      C/G 
	Sometimes i'm tempted - sometimes i'm ashamed
                 F                        C/G
	Of the things that the law will allow
           F                    C/G    
	I could have killed her when i first met her
                                  G      C/G
	And i'd have been out of jail by now

 
	   F                    C/G 
	I could have killed her when we first met 
                                   G      C/G
	And i've have been out of jail by now
