[Intro]
D A D

[Verse]
D
He gets the Beefheart, she gets the Stones, They're willing to fight through every court in the land
                   G                     G7                      D
For the Hearts and Bones, They split the Motown, And she sheds a tear, All the Way Down
                  A                                                A7
And he sings that Same Old Song, You think you're walking out that door with Louden Wainwright
       D      A7          D       D A D
You're wrong, baby you're wrong

D                                                                                                        G
She gets the Beach Boys, A Little Sun, He finds this hard to take with Her Daddy's Car and the Fun, Fun, Fun
                G7                                  D
He gets the Lou Reed, the Brenda Lee and the kinda  Blue, Oh So Blue
           A                                   A7
She said I always meant to tell you how much I hate the way you breathe
                              D        A  D          A             D       G   G7  D  A  D
He takes a deep breath and he seethes, In-articulate speech of the heart (Piano - not on all versions)

                 A              A7
And he sings the Same Old Song, You think you're walking out that door with Aretha Franklin
       D      A7          D
You're wrong, baby you're wrong

D                                                                                                    G
She gets the Mozart, he's made a Liszt, He fights his corner for the ones he wants and the one she's missed
           G7                                                                D
She gets a Nielsen, he doesn't mind, it's scratched and he smiles because he knows
                                                    A                                                     A7
It goes right through her favourite song, She say's you can take the Striesand, I don't like her any way
                                           D    A7                      D    D  A  D
We are as alike as Gladys Knight and Doris Day, Gladys Knight and Doris Day

[Verse]
D
He gets the Beefheart, she gets the Stones, They're willing to fight through every court in the land
                   G                     G7                      D
For the Hearts and Bones, They split the Motown, And she sheds a tear, All the Way Down
                  A                                                A7
And he sings that Same Old Song, You think you're walking out that door with Elvis Presley
       D      A7          D       D A D         A7          D
You're wrong, baby you're wrong          You've always been wrong, (*some versions omit the baby you're wrong)
