[Verse 1]
G                                           F
Well, God made man from a piece of clay and told him 'til his dyin' day:
       Em                       D            G
Said, "You're the boss, I don't want no one above you"
G                                             F
He gave him responsibilities, said, "You only answer unto me"
        Em                    D               G
"If you do these things, I'll make someone to love you"

G                                           F
He took a piece of Adam's rib, never gave a thought about women's lib
       Em             D
And he made the masterpiece of his creation
G                                    F
Now, just between you and me, do you honestly believe,
   Em                    D             G
He wanted you to take my place in this nation?


[Chorus]
C          G      D              G
  American woman, why can't you agree?
C            G                F       C       G
God made man for Himself, but he made you for me
C          G      D                   G
  American woman, why can't you understand?
C                   G               F    C       G
That all you got to do is love your all-American man


[Verse 2]
           G                           F
Well, I've tried my best to understand why you wanna replace man
    Em              D           G
And give up all the luxuries we give you
G                                   F
We work our fingers to the bone and all we want is you at home
    C                   D              G
And you're gonna go too far to forgive you
G                                   F
Now I guess you won't be satisfied 'til you're working nine-to-five
   C                  D                 G
So you can say you're bringing home the bacon
G
Well, of all the tragic things in life
          F
There's a woman who don't wanna be a wife
C               D                G
Missin' all the love we could be makin'


[Chorus]
C          G      D              G
  American woman, why can't you agree?
C            G                F       C       G
God made man for Himself, but he made you for me
C          G      D                   G
  American woman, why can't you understand?
C                   G               F    C       G
That all you got to do is love your all-American man


[Outro]
G                                     F
God made man from a piece of clay and told him 'til his dyin' day:
 C                        D            G
"You're the boss, I don't want no one above you"
G                                   F
He gave him responsibilities said, "You answer only unto me"
        Em                   D               G
"If you do these things I'll make someone to love you
