She's No Lady - Lyle Lovett (Capo 1 for original key)
[Verse 1]
GShe hates my mama, she hates my Am7daddy D7too.
She loves to Gtell me, she hates the tAm7hings I D7do.
She loves to lGie beside me, almost Bbm7every nAm7ight.
GShe's no D9lady, she's my Gwife.
[Verse 2]
The preacher Gasked her, and she Am7said, "I D7do."
The preacher aGsked me, she says, “Am7Yes, He dD7oes too!"
The preacher sGays, "I pronounce you ninety Bbm7nine to Am7life!
GSon, she's no D9lady she's your Gwife!"
[Bridge]
I can't C7remember how I met her,
Seems, she's aG7lways been hangin' here G#7off my right G7arm,
I can't remC7ember how I ever,
Thought that Am7I just couldn't Bbm7live without a woAm7man's charmD7.
[Verse 3]
Now, even Gthough she loves the smell of Am7French perD7fume,
And even Gthough she walks around in Am7high-heeled D7shoes,
All I Gknow is I'm the one that Bbm7pays her pAm7rice,
GMan, she's no D9lady, she's my Gwife.D9  
[Instrumental over Verse progression x2]
[Bridge]
I can't C7remember how I met her,
Seems, she's aG7lways been hangin' here G#7off my right G7arm,
I can't remC7ember how I ever,
thought that Am7I just couldn't Bbm7live without a woAm7man's D7charm.
[Outro]
Now she she hates my Gmama, she hates my Am7daddy D7too.
She loves to Gtell me, how much she hates the Am7things I D7do.
She loves to Glie beside me, almost Bbm7every Am7night.
         G              D9        G(ritard)
She's no lady, she's my wife.
She's no lD7ady, she's my wifeG7
