C 
She wants a ten carat diamond ring 

And that's somethin' I ain't got 

Oh, but the way that she shakes that thang 

G7 
She's gonna have one sooner than not 

C 
A hundred thousand dollar baby blue car 

F#m 
That is also in her plan 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

G7                       C 
And I'm a low budget man 

Chorus 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

She's what you call a ten 

She's a high maintenance woman 

G7 
It takes a lot to keep her tuned in 

C 
Oh that very high maintenance woman 

F#m 
Got me in the shape I'm in 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

G7                           C 
And I'm a low budget man 

Instrumental BREAK (16 BARS) 

C 
Now the beauty salon where she goes 

They do everything to...everything 

From her head down to her toes 

G7 
And all the hot spots in between 

C 
She blows about eight hundred there 

F#m 
And then a champagne shopping spree 

C 
She has very expensive tastes 

G7                            C 
But she's worth every penny 

Chorus 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

She's is what is known as a ten 

She's a high maintenance woman 

G7 
It takes a whole lot to keep her tuned in 

C 
Oh this very high maintenance woman 

F#m 
Got me in the shape I'm in 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

G7                          C 
And I'm a low budget man 

Instrumental BREAK (16 BARS) 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

G7                         C 
And I'm a low budget man 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

But I'm gonna find some more money, honey 

G7 
She's a high maintenance woman 

SPOKEN 

Darlin' 

Sugar 

Sweetie 

C 
She's a high maintenance woman 

G7                              C 
And I'm a low budget man
