Does anyone happen to have the guitar chords to this song? I've tried to find them on the Internet, but have had no luck. Hope someone can help. Many thanks.

Here's a Video showing the basic guitar chords for "Women Be Wise" (although the guy's guitar work doesn't look all that "basic" to me. LOL ).   Pretty sure you could do the song without barre chords (or without many) if you wanted to.

Sing Out! magazine also has the lyrics and chords (sheet music, I think, for this song in this issue:

Women Be Wise ......... v.38#1 ......... p.70

WOMEN, BE WISE

Women, be wise,
Keep your mouth shut,
Don't advertise your man.
Don't sit around gossiping, explaining
What your good man really can do
Some women nowadays, Lord,
They ain't no good.
They will laugh in your face,
Then try to steal your man from you.
Women, be wise,
Keep your mouth shut,
Don't advertise your man.

Your best girlfriend, she might be a highbrow,
She changes clothes 3 times a day.
What do you think she's doing now,
While you're so far away?
She's loving your man
In your own damn bed.
You better call for the doctor, mama,
Try to investigate your head.
Women, be wise,
Keep your mouth shut,
Don't advertise your man.

Women, be wise,
Keep your mouth shut,
Don't advertise your man.
Don't sit around, girl,
Telling all your secrets,
Relling all those good things
He really can do.
If you talk about your baby,
You tell me he's so fine,
Lord, honey, I just might sneak up
And try to make him mine.
Women, be wise,
Keep your mouth shut,
Don't advertise your man.

Don't be no fool, Don't advertise your man!
(Baby, don't do it.)
