 D                                                       G                 A                         D 
I sat at a bar having a beer trying to hold down the stew
                                                                                                             G                       A                       D 
When a stranger walked in, stood there beside me, and plopped down there like a fool
                                                                                                     G                               A                       D 
He started drinkin' then he started talkin' 'bout things that were wrong in his life
 G                                                   D                                       A                                                       D 
The more that I heard, the more I believed, the thing that was wrong was his wife
                         D                                                                                       G                   A                 D 
He said you talk about beauty, when we first met she was all that a man could desire
                                                                                                       G           A               D 
Talk about love, one night with her would set your very soul afire
                                                                                                   G             A               D 
But love's little flame is out of control, 'bout 3 feet high from behind
 G                                                         D                                       A                                                     D 
Since we've been married I've come to believe that love is of the dumb and the blind, no offense
         D                                                                     G                         A                 D 
You talk about ugly, when she gets mad, she goes from Jekyll to Hyde
                                                             G                             A                                   D 
She grits her teeth, then her eyes roll back, pivot from side to side
                                                                                                             G                     A                       D 
She completely rewrites the whole English language, 4-letter, descriptive and loud
         G                                                                 D                                           A                                                   D 
Now I can't out-think her, but I can sure out-drink her, and that's what I'm doin' here now
                         G                                           D 
'Cause I've spent 7 years with the wrong woman
 G                                                 D 
Seven and goin' on eight
         G                         D 
She spent 7 years naggin' and eatin'
                                                               A 
I'm over-wrought and she's overweight
       G                                 D 
If I try leavin' she has me arrested
                           G                                           D 
Takes her own sweet time gettin' me out
                                         G                                     D 
If she ain't number 1, she's in the top 2
                                 A                     D 
Of the things I could live without
 G                                         D 
Men commit murder and all kinds of mayhem
           G                                                         D 
In a few years they're back on the street
 G                                     D 
Highway robbery and white collar crime
                                                                     A 
And they laugh at the system they reap
         G                                           D 
Sometimes I'm tempted, sometimes I'm ashamed
               G                                       D 
Of the things the law will allow
 G                                     D 
I coulda killed her when I first met her
                     A                                     D 
And I'd a been out of jail by now
