(verse 1) 

G       C/G          G    C/G 
What we need in the world today 
      G             Eb      G 
Is a guide for the married man 
      G      C/G           G    C/G 
Some simple thing that in every way 
          G            B7      E 
Would provide for the harried man 
Dm               Em 
Help him not to worry 
   Dm            Em 
Assist him to relax 
 Dm                 C 
Help him slow his heart rate 
     F#            D 
And spare him cardiacs 

(verse 2) 
Such a guide would in many ways 
Turn the tide for the married man 
Enable husbands to fill their days 
As only the married can 
Dm                Em 
Every man would praise it 
F               D7 
It's such a splendid plan 
G       C/G            G          C/G 
Someday soon we shall point with pride 
         Eb                   G   C/G  G  C/G 
To the guide for the married man

(verse 3 - chords as per verse 1) 

By the side of the married man 
'Tis the lady who shares his life 
You help the bride of the married man 
By removing the husband's strife 
Every wife who's truthful 
Who treasures married bliss 
Must keep her husband youthful 
What better way than this?

Must be tried for the married man 
     B       E/B          B         E/B 
But who can question the debt he'll owe 
        B            D#7     G# 
To the guide for the married man

List things universal

From Pittsburgh to Japan 
B      E          B     E 
Every man can be satisfied 
        G                     B
