Verse 1:

        G7
Lord, a good man is hard to find
C7
You always get another kind
F
Just when you think that he's your pal
    Bb   N.C.
You look and find him foolin' 'round some old gal
F        G7
Then you rave, you all crave
            C                   C7
You want to see him down in his grave
           Bb           G7
So if your man is nice, take my advice;
F Bb                     F Bb
  Hug him in the morning,  kiss him at night
F Bb                      F          Bb
  Give him plenty lovin'; treat your good man right
B7      C7           F7                   Bb   Eb  Ebm Bb
Cause a good man nowadays sure is hard to find

You wanna see him dead layin' in his grave
           Bb           G7
