[Verse]
She roots out her best Fearrings with a GcombC  
The ones that go with her Frowdy red GhairC  
Weaves her way between the Fplastic and the GbonesC  
Leaves all her empty evenings Fhanging in the airG  C  
[Chorus]
And he don't mind that she's a Fshort-tempered GgirlC  
He don't mind that she may Fsoon say goodGbyeC  
He don't mind 'cause she's got Fsomething he Gloves
She's as Cstraight as a dieF  G  C  F  G  C  
[Verse]
She sees the men out Fchanging the GstateC  
Knows they stoop, though her Feyes are half-GdrownedC  
Hear the steeple say, it's a Fquarter past GeightC  
Moves on in a hurry, well, she's a Flong way from GtownC  
[Chorus]
And he don't mind that she's a Fshort-tempered GgirlC  
He don't mind that she may Fsoon make him GcryC

So glad he bought something small to Fgive her for a GgiftC
