This is entirely accurate, not a hair out of place. Improvements on the other version aswell.

Song:
                     G              Bb        F         G
Well, I'm finding it harder to be a gentleman every day,
        Bb5                     F                           G
All the manners that I've been taught have slowly died away.
F (one strum, let ring) N.C
But if I held the door open for you it wouldn't make your day.

Break:
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G

G                           Bb          F    G
You think that I care about me and only me,
     Bb5                      F                       G
When every single girl needs help climbing up a tree.
F (one strum, let ring) N.C
And I know it don't take much to satisfy me.

Break:
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G

C (one strum, let ring)          Bb (one strum, let ring) G
Maybe it's whatever's in my hand that's distracting me.
       Bb (one strum, let ring)  C (one strum, let ring)                  D5
But if I could find the emotion to stimulate devotion well then you'd see.

Break:
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G

G                                     Bb               F            G
Well I'm finding it hard to say that I need you twenty times a day,
        Bb                  F                        G
I feel comfortable so baby why don't you feel the same?
       F (one strum, let ring) N.C
Have a doctor come and visit us, and tell us which one is sane.

Break:
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G
G G G G G G G G G Bb F Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 A5 G

G                                Bb            F           G
I never said I wouldn't throw my jacket in the mud for you,
        Bb                  F                        G
But my father gave it to me so maybe I should carry you.
         F (one strum, let ring) N.C
Then you said you almost dropped me so then I did, 
                          G* (slow strum)
And I got mud on my shoes.
