You'll have to listen to the album to play along to get it right for a while.
It's kind of hard to sing and play at the same time. Words are from memory so
they might not be exact.

Intro
D/F# A E5 F#5 E5 D5 (Fig 1 [used in all verses])
/ ^ / ^/ / ^ / ^ /
(Fig. 1 once for each line)
Well she did understand him so she guessed he was deep
She had never been to college and was too dumb to be
So he lead her to the altar thinkin' he'd be laughin' last
Now the lady in question is his better half
(Chorus)
She's gotta be the stupidest girl I've ever seen
Don't care who, why or where I've been
She's got a right to be everything that's wrong with me
But she doesn't want to understand that she's a girl and I'm a man
(Fig 1 again)
(Same as first verse)
He thought that woman and drinking made a man out of him
But the extent of his study left a jaded man
So when she lead him to the altar he was easily led
And when they ask him if he did, well, this is what he said
Chorus
Solo over verse chords
Bridge
Every time I see her she gives me a new reason to be in
love tied up in love
And when I see her she says you're not cool you're just like
me You're a stupid man Get over
here Take my stupid hand
It's alright yeah yeah
Fig 1. about 4 times then chorus and fade
