[E] [Em]
[E]
Okay, I got about the trash.
[A] Didn't trim the long hairs on my mustache.
[E] I did buy you a ring.
I believe it [F#] was back in 93.
[E] All right, I admit, I forgot our anniversary.
[A] I did pick up the baby this morning at the nursery.
[Em] That ain't no big thing.
[B] It's a gold [E] star for me.
[Em]
[A] You get tired and disgusted with [E] me.
When I can't be just what you want me to be.
[A] I still love you and I try real [F#] hard.
I swear one day [B] you'll have a brand new [A] car.
I even asked the Lord to try to help me.
[E] He looked down from [A] heaven, said to tell you, please [E] just be patient.
[B] I'm a work [E] in progress.
[Em]
I'm sorry [E] I got mad waiting in the truck.
[A] Seemed like hours you getting all dressed up [E] just to go to a show on a Wednesday [B] night.
[E] I read that book you gave me about Martin Venice.
I think it's sinking in, but I probably need to reread it.
But I'm starting to see now [B] what you've been saying [E] is right.
[A] You get tired and disgusted with [E] me.
When I can't be just what you want me to be.
[A]
I still love you and I try real hard.
[F#] I swear one day [B] you'll have a brand new car.
[A] I even asked the Lord to try to help me.
[E] He looked down from heaven, [A] said to tell you, please [E] just be patient.
[B]
I'm a work [E] in progress.
[A]
[Em]
[F#] [B]
[E]
[Em] I know [E] you meant well when you bought me those cloths.
[A] Put my heels and get hot down by the muffler on my hog.
[E] I'm sure they're stylish, but I'll [B] take my boots.
[Bm] [E] I try to do that health thing like you want me to do.
[A] But that low fat and no fat's getting hard to chew.
Now [E] I love your cooking, honey, [B] but sometimes I need [E] some real food.
[A] You get tired and disgusted with me.
[E] When I can't be just [Em] what you want me to be.
[A] I still love you and I try real hard.
[F#] I swear one day you'll [B] have a brand new car.
[A]
I even asked [E] the Lord to try to help me.
He looked down from heaven, [A] said to tell you, please [E] just be patient.
[B] I'm a work [E] in progress.
[A] Oh honey, just [E] be patient now.
[B]
I'm a work [E] in progress.
Oh, I need a [Em] major tune up.
[E] Maybe a full body [Em] off record.
[E]
Time to show up.
