He's a [G]man, with a [G7]plan,
Got a [C]counterfeit dollar,
[Cm7] In his hand;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Playin' [G]hard, talkin' [G7]fast,
Makin' [C]sure that he won't,
[Cm7] Be the last;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Makes a [G]deal, with a [G7]smile,
Knowin' [C]all the time,
That his [Cm7]lie's a mile;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Must be [G]seen, there's no [G7]doubt,
There's no [G7]doubt,
He's the [C]coolest one,
With the [Cm7]biggest mouth;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Chorus 1:
[Am7] If you tell him he's [G/B]livin' fast,
[C] He will say what [D]do you know.
[Em] If you had my [D/F#]kind of cash,
You'd [G]have more than,
One [Am7]place to go oh,
[G] Ooh...[A7]ooh, [C]Ooh ooh...[D7]ooh.
Verse 2:
Any [G]place; he will [G7]play,
His [C]only concern,
Is how [Cm7]much you'll pay;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
If he [G]shakes, on a [G7]bet,
He's the [C]kind of dude,
That won't [Cm7]pay his debt;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Chorus 2:
[Am7] When you say that,
He's [G/B]livin' wrong;
He'll [C]tell you he,
Knows he's [D]livin' right.
And [Em]you'd be, a stronger [D/F#]man,
If you [G]took Misstra,
Know-lt-[Am7]All's advice, oh oh.
[G] Ooh...[A7]ooh, [C]ooh ooh...[D7]ooh....

He's a [G]man, with a [G7]plan,
Got a [C]counterfeit dollar,
[Cm7] In his hand;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Take my [G]word, please be-[G7]ware,
Of a [C]man that just,
Don't [Cm7]give a care, no;

Take your [C]hat off to,
The man who's [Cm7]got the plan;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Every [G]boy take your hand,[G7]
To the [C]man that's got the [G]plan;

[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
If we [G]had, less of him,[F7]
Don't you know we'd,
[C] Have a better [Cm7]land?
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.

He'll [C]tell it all,
You [Cm7]talk too much,
You worry me to death;
[G] He's [D7]Misstra [C]Know-It-[G]All.
Give a [G]hand, to the man,[G7]
Don't you [C]know darn well,
He's got the [Cm7]super plan;
